Description
The stable block at Cunnoquhie House is an early 19th-century, two-storey building designed in a classical style, arranged in a U-shape. The east elevation features five bays constructed of droved ashlar, while the rest of the building is made from coursed whin rubble with polished dressings. All openings are segmental-headed, with tall segmental-headed recessed panels in the central and advanced outer bays. There is a cart opening in the central bay below a window set into an arch, and single windows in the bays between. The ground floor has 12-pane sash windows, while the upper floor features 6-pane sash windows. A cornice and blocking course create a shallow block pediment over the outer bays, and there are two symmetrically placed stacks.
The cylindrical clock tower sits on a square plinth and is supported by four Roman Doric columns that hold up the entablature. Above this, there is a drum topped with a finialed dome. The parallel wings to the west have square-headed door and window openings facing the courtyard, along with an eaves and lintel band. The north block is connected to the kennels.
