Braehead

Braehead is a cottage dated 1771, with a later addition of an attic storey in the 19th century and alterations made in the late 20th century. The building is a single-storey and attic structure with three bays, featuring canted piend-roofed dormers. It is constructed from whinstone rubble with droved sandstone ashlar dressings. Notable architectural details include an eaves course and a band course that links the window and door lintels at the original eaves height, along with long and short quoins.

The house has a central half-glazed timber panelled door on the southeast (principal) elevation, flanked by windows, and two dormers on the roof. To the northeast (right) is a slightly lower former byre range that has irregularly spaced windows and half-glazed doors. The gable to the northeast is rendered, featuring a lean-to outshot at ground level and a small window in the attic. On the northwest (rear) elevation, there are three windows from the original cottage, with irregular fenestration on the former byre and a Victorian outshot at the centre.

The front of the house predominantly features 4-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows, while the rear has mostly timber double-glazed windows. The gablehead stacks are coped, with some yellow clay cans, and the skews are ashlar-coped. The roof is covered with graded grey slates.

The former threshing barn is a single-storey gabled structure with an eaves course and ashlar-coped skews. It has a central doorway with flanking slit windows on the southwest and northeast elevations, and three slit windows (two at ground level and one at the gable apex) on the northwest and southeast (gable) elevations, also covered with graded grey slate.

The boundary wall, gates, and gatepiers are all from the late 20th century, featuring a random rubble drystone wall, simple sandstone ashlar gatepiers, and wrought-iron hooped gates.
