Kirkland

Kirkland is an earlier or mid-19th century farmhouse. It is a symmetrical, two-storey, three-bay structure. The farmhouse is constructed of coursed and squared rubble with ashlar dressings. The west elevation features hood-moulded openings and lying-pane sashes. A central gabled porch with a two-leaf door within an architrave is present. The ground floor has bipartites (two windows set together as one), and the first floor has three windows with finialed, gabled dormer heads. The roof has saw-tooth skews with shaped skewputts, corniced end stacks, and is covered with graded slates. A lower, parallel block adjoins the farmhouse to the east; this block was altered in 1872 and extends southwards, featuring west-facing windows. A steading is not included in the listing. Copies of drawings documenting the 1872 alterations are held in the National Monuments Record of Scotland. The statutory address is Kirkland Farmhouse.
