Description
Lundie is a simple 19th century, single storey, three-bay cottage built from rubble, featuring a gabled design. It has a low two-bay wing to the east and was altered around 1903 by Sir Robert Lorimer for his blacksmith. The central two-leaf door is flanked by two-storey square projecting bay windows, with slate hung over the ground floor, wide eaves, and bell-cast roofs. The bays are connected by a swept-roofed porch, and the building has skews, end walls, and a slate roof. The low wing includes a door and window, a single tall stack, and a pantile roof.
The property features three decorative wrought-iron gates, at least two of which were made by James Bennet, the blacksmith from Arncroach. The third gate, which has a curvilinear design and the name "Lundie," may have been designed by Sir Robert Lorimer and is set into the rubble-built garden wall. One of the gates is dated 1889 and bears the letters "J B" for James Bennet. This gate, which has tall slender gatepiers and an overthrow, leads to the vegetable garden and was designed by Rev T P Johnstone, the minister from Carnbee, and made by James Bennet in 1870. It was brought to Lundie Cottage in 1905.
