Description
Garden Cottage at Saltoun Hall is an earlier 19th-century single-storey cottage designed in the Regency style. The northern elevation features squared and coursed ashlar stone, while the other sides are constructed of red brick laid in Flemish bond, accented with ashlar dressings and a base course. The cottage has narrow windows throughout.
On the northeast elevation, there is an advanced bay at the center with two windows, and a doorway located on the return to the right. The southeast elevation has three bays, with a round-arched doorway at the center that includes a fanlight. To the right of the doorway is a window in a flanking bay, and to the left, there is an advanced bowed bay. A loggia with slender cast-iron and timber columns connects the bays to the center and right, with the bowed bay on the left situated under the eaves of the main roof.
The east and west elevations each have two bays with windows. The east elevation features a bowed bay to the left that has a wide window. The cottage is topped with grey slate roofing and has brick stacks. The windows are sash and case style, displaying a lying-pane glazing pattern.
