Description
Home Farm at Cairney Lodge is an earlier 19th century, symmetrically planned, single-storey steading with lofts. It incorporates earlier blocks to the east and features a large central two-stage square tower on its symmetrical nine-bay west elevation.
The west elevation is constructed of squared purple granite, with most of the remainder built from rubble, and it has droved yellow ashlar dressings. The lower stage of the tower includes a carriage entrance beneath a dovecot in a round-headed opening. The upper stage is made of droved ashlar and has a tripartite design with a slated ogival roof, a semi-circular opening, and a square lantern above topped with a lead bell-cast roof and a weather vane. The flanking wings have broader advanced outer bays with round-headed openings, which are connected to the tower by three-bay centre-doored cottages, each featuring a canted window and a box dormer.
On the east elevation, there is a central block with a crowstepped gable that has three inserted segmental-headed openings with vermiculated voussoirs. The roofs are covered with slate and pantile.
