Cargen Grove

Cargen Grove is a former stable building designed by architects Peddie & Kinnear around 1870, which has been converted for domestic use. The structure is arranged in a U-plan with three ranges in the Scots baronial style, featuring angle turrets on both south gables that are linked to screen walls, enclosing a cobbled courtyard to the south.

The north range is two storeys high, while the other two ranges are single storey with lofts. The exterior is harled with red ashlar dressings and painted margins, and the upper openings have pedimented dormer heads. The angle turrets are circular with dummy gun loops and corbelled to square at the upper level, topped with steep pyramidal roofs. The upper openings of the turrets contain clocks and a dovecote, along with diminutive lucarnes and a weathervane finial.

The north range is currently in domestic use, with three segmental cart arches leading to the courtyard that are now blocked or glazed. There is a door on the east side and a central wall head stack, with two first-floor gabled windows on either side that break the eaves. Both the east and west wings feature square-headed doors, windows, and loft doors. The east range also includes a segmental arched cartway and a distinctive leaded gabled and bracketed ventilator raised above a ramped plinth over the wall-head. The building has coped stacks, and the south gables are crow-stepped, all under slate roofs.
