Old Manse, Pilmuir

The Old Manse at Pilmuir is a two-story, three-bay dormer Free Church manse dating to around 1845, accompanied by a single-story range of outbuildings. The main elevation is built of cream-coloured stone laid in a coursed, snecked and stugged pattern, with ashlar dressings. The sides and rear are of rubble yellow stone. A central doorway has a panelled door and fanlight, flanked by ground floor windows and a window in each bay at the first floor. A stair window is present at the rear, flanked by windows to the left, with an additional first-floor window inserted. A piend-roofed stone porch connects at ground level to the piend-roofed outbuildings. Twelve-pane glazing is used in the sash and case windows. The roof is covered in grey slates, with shouldered end stacks. The windows follow a twelve-pane glazing pattern in sash and case windows and grey slates cover the roof. The curtain wall and well located to the south-east of the house are the only remaining features of the former Free Church and the now-vanished hamlet of Pilmuir.
