Description
This is a post office and former hotel, built in 1865 by A & W Reid of Elgin and Inverness. It is an asymmetrical, two-storey gabled building constructed of rubble stone with contrasting tooled red ashlar dressings. The front facing southeast has a centrally positioned entrance masked by a gabled rustic timber porch. To the left of the porch is a slightly projecting gabled bay containing a two-light and a three-light window on the ground floor. The southwest-facing garden front has four bays, with a single canted bay window on the ground floor and a slightly advanced gabled bay to the left. Some first-floor windows are designed as gabled dormers, breaking the eaves. The roof is covered in slate and features coped end and ridge stacks. A small single-storey rubble lean-to, with tooled rubble margins, projects from the northeast gable and currently houses the post office.
Adjacent to the hotel are former stables, a rectangular rubble building with a gable facing the road. A modern "up and over" garage door now occupies the former entrance, which was originally a segmental gighouse opening. A stable entrance is located in the long return elevation. A short coped rubble wall with a double-gated entrance connects the stables to the post office. This wall is flanked by simple square rubble gate piers topped with shallow pyramidal caps.
