Description
Dated 1862, 2 Castle Moffat Cottages is a single-storey, symmetrical row of farm cottages accompanied by pavilioned outbuildings. The cottages are constructed from squared and snecked rubble with droved ashlar dressings and harled end gables, featuring stone mullions.
The north elevation features a round-arched pend centrally positioned, flanked by windows. Gabled porches project from the flanking bays, each with bipartites facing north and doorways leading to the pend. Windows are situated between the porches, with further gabled porches to the penultimate bays, detailed similarly but with doorways on their outer sides.
The south elevation has a coped, shouldered wallhead stack above the central round-arched pend, incorporating a dated panel. Single windows flank the pend, and two bipartites are present on each side, with single windows in the outer bays. Gabled dormers were added in the later 19th century. Gabled outbuildings extend to the northeast and northwest, with doorways on their court sides; these are linked to the cottages by a curtain wall which is later backed by flat-roofed outbuildings.
The windows are sash and case with a four-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered in grey slates, with timber eaves brackets to the porches; these formerly had finials. Ridge and gable end stacks are also present.
The building is listed at Grade B, recognizing it as a complete group of specially designed farm cottages. A steading to the south is listed separately. The statutory address is Castle Moffat Cottages, Castle Moffat.
