Description
Lathallan is a ruinous single-storey and attic stable and cottage built in 1826 by Thomas Hamilton, designed in a plain Tudor style. The structure features squared rubble with droved ashlar dressings, a deep base course, and an eaves course. Notable architectural elements include corbelled dormer gablets, hoodmoulds, and voussoirs.
On the south elevation, there is a bay to the left of the center with two lancet windows leading to a stone dormer gablet that has a barred round-headed opening at the wallhead. To the right, there is a slightly advanced gabled bay with a part-blocked single window, although the gablehead detail is obscured by vegetation.
The west elevation has an advanced piended bay to the right with a wallhead gablet similar to the south elevation, and to the left, there is a return featuring a two-leaf boarded timber door set within a broad segmental arch. This elevation also includes recessed bays with a door and flanking windows to the stable, which retains ball-finialled trevises with cast-iron railings, tiled walls, and moulded cornices. The left side shows a variety of openings to largely derelict bays.
The east elevation, facing the courtyard, has altered openings in its ruined state. The north elevation features a gabled bay to the right with a window on each floor and a screen wall to the outer right, while the left side has a recessed blank wall.
There is evidence of timber sash and case windows, and the roof is covered with grey slates in places. The building has shouldered coped ashlar stacks and ashlar-coped skews with flat skewputts.
