Description
Crairiepark is a farmhouse located in Durisdeer, likely designed by architect Walter Newall around 1830, with some alterations made by Charles Howitt in 1858. The building is a two-storey, three-bay structure with wings and a detached courtyard steading to the north that includes a horsemill. It is constructed from rubble with ashlar dressings, is whitewashed, and has roofs covered with graded slates.
The house was originally T-shaped, featuring a low rear wing that was later raised, and a recessed lower east wing was added by Howitt. The south elevation includes a square central bull-faced ashlar porch, likely added in the later 19th century, along with sash windows that have plate glass on the ground floor and 12-pane glazing on the first floor. The skews are straight, while later skews are sawtoothed, and the recessed wing extends one bay to the east, with a low single bay wing possibly from the late 19th century beyond that.
The steading consists of four ranges built around a narrow rectangular courtyard, which is accessed from the southeast corner. At the north end of the tall west range is a large apsidal horsemill supported on square ashlar piers, with a barn door located in the north end wall of this range. The south range features a three-bay stable with a loft and a low cartshed at the short east range, which has a piended wide three-bay south end wall. The deep north range has a high roof with two tiers of skylights and glazed roof ventilators.
