Description

The Dairy at Tyninghame House is an octagonal dairy pavilion designed by William Burn around 1833. It is constructed of red stugged sandstone and features deep eaves that create a walkway supported by cast-iron columns. There is a doorway on one side, while the other seven sides have tall windows with louvred shutters, each equipped with two ventilator blocks below. The pavilion has timber eaves brackets and a roof covered with grey slates and lead flashings. At the apex, there is an octagonal ventilator topped with an overhanging polygonal roof and a pyramidal finial.
