Description

Craigflower House, located on Low Causeway in Torryburn, features substantial remodelling by David Bryce dated 1862, transforming an earlier house into a Scottish Baronial style. This three-storey structure includes angle turrets that are corbelled from either the first or second floor, except for the southeast turret, which extends to full height, all topped with conical roofs. The building is constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings and presents asymmetrical facades.

The entrance front showcases a central projecting pilastered porch adorned with obelisk finials and other Jacobean details, characteristic of the Portmore type. To the right, there is a wide bay that is canted at the ground level, features a tall first floor, and is corbelled to a square at the second floor, along with three pedimented dormers. The southeast angle turret boasts a tall mullioned window on the first floor.

The long garden elevation is also asymmetrical, with three and four storeys, and includes a central square turret that is corbelled over the first floor. The house is finished with crowstepped gables and slated roofs.
