Little Raith

Little Raith is a classical farmhouse built in the late 18th to early 19th century. It is a two-storey, three-bay structure with a rectangular plan, situated on ground that slopes to the north. The exterior is harled, featuring quoin strips and stone margins.

On the south elevation, the entrance is marked by a deep-set, panelled timber door with a plate glass fanlight above, all framed by a corniced, concave-moulded doorcase. This is located below a Venetian window on the first floor, where the outer lights are blinded. There are also windows in the flanking bays.

The north elevation has steps leading up to a timber door positioned to the right of centre, with a window to the outer right and a bipartite window to the left. There is a small stair window at the centre and additional windows in the outer bays on the first floor.

The west elevation features windows to the right at ground level and to the left on the first floor, along with a small attic window in the gable head. The east elevation also has a small attic window in the gable head.

Throughout the building, the timber sash and case windows exhibit 12- and 15-pane glazing patterns. The roof is covered with graded grey slates, and there are coped brick stacks topped with a full complement of polygonal cans and thackstanes, as well as ashlar coped skews. The property also includes cast-iron downpipes and decorative rainwater hoppers.
