Smithy, Clachan Of Myrton

The building is a smithy from the later 19th century, designed as a single-storey structure. It is connected to a modernised single-storey and attic, 2-bay cottage known as Smithy House, creating an L-shaped plan at the rear. The exterior is finished in painted rubble.

On the east elevation, there is an opening on the left featuring a timber lintel and a sliding steel machinery door, with the cottage located to the right. The south elevation has a window on the right, which includes a timber mullion and transom that divides it into 16 small panes. There is also a partly-glazed window to the left of centre, along with a timber and corrugated sheet metal lean-to attached to the left side.

The west elevation features a painted rubble lean-to that was formerly a byre, extending the width of the gable. There is a door on the right side leading to the south, and the roof is made of corrugated sheet metal. The gable above is partly rendered.

On the north elevation, there is a partly-glazed window in the centre and a small modern porch for the house to the left, which fills the re-entrant angle. The roof is piended to the east and gabled to the west, covered with modern purple slates on the east pitch, small grey slates on the south pitch, and corrugated sheet asbestos on the north, with slates in the re-entrant angle to the east. The building features granite dressed rubble stacks, with a gablehead on the west and an off-centre ridge to the east, along with red sandstone ridge and thackstanes. There are two rooflights each on the north and south pitches.

Inside, the smithy consists of two apartments separated by a rubble wall. The eastern apartment includes a shoeing shed with some setts on the floor. The western apartment houses the smithy, which contains a metal-canopied brick and stone forge on the west wall with bellows, and a brick-canopied forge on the east wall. There is also a water pump located to the south.
