Description
Rankeilour Mains is a T-plan farmhouse dating from around 1800, featuring two storeys and low flanking wings that connect to the gables of the steading. The building is constructed from coursed rubble with ashlar dressings. To the east, there is a later detached steading block, with a cartshed and cottage situated beyond it.
The south elevation of the house has three irregular bays and a later off-centre porch. It features three irregularly placed windows on both the ground and first floors, all of which are 12-pane sashes. The roof has straight skews, end stacks, and is covered with slate. Each flanking wing contains two blind windows. The steading creates a rectangular courtyard to the north, consisting of one and two-storey structures with slate and pantile roofs.
To the east, there is an earlier 19th-century single-storey and loft detached stable block, which has been converted into houses. This block is made of stugged ashlar with polished dressings and has a slate roof. Its symmetrical, classical design includes nine bays on the east and west elevations, with the central and outer bays being broader, advanced, and pedimented. The east elevation features depressed-arched cart openings, which are blocked in the outer bays with oculi in the pediments, and a central clock. The bays between have single 6-pane sashes. The west elevation includes doors and windows, with round-headed loft openings interrupting the bases of the pediments.
The north and south elevations each have three bays. The square-plan piend-roofed cartshed has two depressed-arched cart openings on the south elevation. Beyond this, there is a single-storey, three-bay cottage with a central door that has a rectangular fanlight, and bipartites in the outer bays featuring 9-pane upper sashes.
