Description
Kinloss House is a large symmetrical building, likely constructed around 1805 with additions made in 1887 by the architects Gillespie and Scott of St Andrews. It features two storeys above a basement and is built from squared whin-stone with yellow ashlar long and short dressings. The north elevation has five bays and includes a flat-roofed central projecting porch with clasping angle pilasters, a recessed door flanked by Roman Doric columns, a cornice, and a blocking course. All windows above the basement are 12-pane sashes, and there is a band course over the ground floor, a cill band at the first floor, and an eaves/lintel course with a cornice. The house also has two small dormers, coped central and end stacks, and a piended slate roof. The south elevation consists of four bays, with the outer bays canted to full height as part of the 1887 additions. A low single-storey, piend-roofed wing was also added to the west during this time.
