Description
The Salmon Fishing Station in Invershin is an early 19th-century, two-storey building arranged in a U-shape, facing west. The complex includes a boiling house to the north, twin ice houses in the east range, and a four-bay dwelling house to the south. There is an additional two-storey, two-bay wing that projects south from the dwelling house, featuring a later main entrance that is obscured by a modern glazed sunparlour. The building is constructed from rubble with tooled ashlar dressings.
The rear range of the courtyard is built against a hillside, with both ice houses integrated into the slope. These ice houses have rear chutes and turf roofs, which are now covered with corrugated iron. Access to the ice houses is through two segmental-headed arches in the courtyard. The courtyard is enclosed by a high coped rubble wall, which includes a pair of square dressed rubble gate piers with square caps.
There is an off-centre side entrance to the house located on the right side of the courtyard, accompanied by a small modern lean-to porch. The west gable features two windows on the ground floor and one on the first floor, with one of the first-floor windows being blind. The windows mainly have 12-pane glazing. The building has end and ridge stacks, with a large lateral stack in the north wall that serves the boiling house, and it is topped with a slate roof. A ridge windvane in the shape of a salmon is located at the centre of the east courtyard range.
