Steading, Pressmennan Farm

The Steading at Pressmennan Farm dates from the earlier to mid-19th century, with later 19th-century additions. It is a quadrangular traditional farm steading located on land that slopes down toward Pressmennan Lake, featuring a power house and stalk attached to the southwest corner. The building is constructed of red sandstone rubble with droved ashlar dressings.

The east range includes a segmental carriage pend in a raised bay at the center, flanked by a four-bay cartshed to the right supported by cast-iron columns. The fourth bay on the right has two-leaf doors, while the taller corner bay to the outer right has later machinery doors and a blank return to the north range. To the left of the center, there are four doors arranged in a group of one, one, and two.

The north range features a taller barn and hayloft/granary at the northeast, which is a later 19th-century addition. It has sliding machinery doors for the barn, three granary windows above, and one hayloft door with a swept dormerhead. This section is flanked on the outer right by an even taller bay with a door and a hayloft door above, also with a piended dormerhead.

The power house has a pantiled piended roof and is positioned at right angles to the west range. It features a two-leaf door on the west side and a circular section red brick stalk in the re-entrant angle to the right, which is set on a tall sandstone base and has a neck band and moulded cornice.

The west range has a section that has been demolished to the right of the stalk. Inside, the cattle courts were removed around 1985, and the courtyard is now covered over. The principal ranges and the power house retain red pantiles with semi-circular ridge tiles, while some later sections are covered with grey slates.
