Description
Pitlour House Stables is a classical stable block built around 1767 to 1775, possibly designed by Robert Mylne with George Paterson. It underwent alterations by mason William Simson around 1827, with further changes made in the 21st century. The stables are arranged in a single and two-storey courtyard plan and feature a distinctive doocot tower with an ogival roof over a basket-arched pend in the east range. The south range includes three Venetian doors on its south elevation, along with raised pyramidal-roofed corner pavilions. The building is located on rising ground to the northeast of Pitlour House and is constructed mainly of harled sandstone rubble, with polished ashlar rusticated quoins on the south and west ranges. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the squared rubble stacks have ashlar copes and clay cans.
