Description

Stirling House, located on Craigiebarn Road in Dundee, is a 2-storey, U-plan building designed in the 17th century Scots style. Originally constructed as stable offices for Craigie House by James MacLaren around 1860, it was converted in 1910 by architects Percy Freeman and Gilbert F M Ogilvy from London. The structure is built of sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings featuring droved margins and has a grey slate roof.

The west elevation includes a timber porch designed to resemble masonry, complete with channel jointing, pilaster strips, and a frieze that extends to the main elevation. It features a round-paned rectangular fanlight and a wrought-iron parapet. The windows on this elevation include a single window flanked by paired windows on the first floor, while a projecting gable on the left has two first-floor windows and a gablehead stack. The right gable also projects and contains a window on both the ground and first floors, with bracketted lanterns at each gable.

On the south elevation, there are French doors with flanking windows and an additional window to the left, along with three dormerheads. The east elevation showcases three gables with six windows on the ground floor and five on the first floor, as well as a single-storey bay on the right that has 23 windows. The north elevation features a single-storey projection on the left with a door at the re-entrant and three windows on the right, along with a dormerhead on the first floor.

Inside, some original chimneypieces and door furniture remain, along with fictive timber panelling in the dining room that includes an original sanctuary-type lamp. Additionally, there is a convex rubble wall with rounded coping in the garden to the east.
