Steading, Kinaldy Farm

The steading at Kinaldy Farm dates to 1862, marked with the initials "J P". It was re-roofed in 1892 by Gillespie of St Andrews, following fire damage. A farmhouse was reconstructed in 1914, with a later addition. The steading has a rectangular plan with a double internal court and is built of snecked rubble with margined, rock-faced dressings. The south elevation features two wide, segmentally arched doors with plain dressings, two flanking rock-faced doors, and an advanced double-gable section to the left, again with wide, segmentally arched doors. To the right is the farmhouse, which is single-storey and attic/two-storey, with an L-plan front featuring ground floor bipartites. A chimney gablet is centrally placed on the east flank, and the windows have eight-pane glazing. A particularly unusual five-bay cartshed is located within the north range, its south elevation displaying chamfered segmental arches with rock-faced voussoirs supported on cast-iron columns, with loft windows above. The range dividing the courts has broad, segmentally arched recesses in the walls, used as feeding troughs and displaying other unusual features. At the north-west corner, the stump of a columnar engine house chimney survives, featuring a dentiled pedestal and moulded base. The steading is listed for its very unusual detailing of the cartsheds and feeding troughs.
