Description
Newington House is a farm building dating from 1828. It is two storeys high with a basement and attic, and has three windows on each floor. The building is constructed of whin ashlar stone with sandstone dressings, featuring long, angled quoins. It has a piend (hipped) slate roof with a single, centrally placed, canted dormer window. Large gable chimneys have a concave curve to their upper shoulders. A slightly later porch, built of channelled ashlar and shaped like a semi-octagon, extends from the front, featuring a segmentally arched fanlight above the entrance. There is also a later back wing. The windows retain their original, horizontally proportioned glazing. Four "bee-holes" (small openings) are present in the garden wall.
Newington House forms part of a notable group of farm buildings, largely unchanged from its original appearance. The farm was established in 1825 when the estate of Colluthie was divided between the Inglis brothers. The statutory address includes Newington House and associated garden wall.
