Description
The Charlotte Campbell Memorial House in Nine Mile Burn is a single-storey hall built in the later 19th century, featuring a rectangular plan with six bays and some later additions. The building is constructed from stugged, squared, and snecked sandstone, with projecting cills, stop-chamfered arrises, and long and short quoins.
On the southeast elevation, the central gabletted porch is advanced and has coped skews topped with a decorative finial. It includes an architraved doorpiece with a flush-panelled timber door and a 2-pane rectangular fanlight above. This is surmounted by a moulded tooled ashlar panel featuring an entwined lettering motif. The door is flanked by tooled ashlar panels that read 'Charlotte Campbell Memorial House' on the right and 'The Girls' Guildry' on the left. The remaining bays contain windows.
The southwest elevation features a gable with a gabletted porch that has a vertically-boarded timber door on the southeast return, which is obscured by a flat-roofed single-storey rendered addition that includes four evenly spaced windows and a blank wall on the southeast return.
On the northeast elevation, there is a window centered in the gable, and to the right is a three-bay flat-roofed rendered addition that has a modern timber door on the left and a pair of evenly spaced windows in the remaining bays.
The northwest (rear) elevation was not seen in 1999, and the interior was also not seen at that time. The building predominantly features 12-pane timber sash and case windows, a graded grey slate roof with a central covered ridge vent, cast-iron rainwater goods, hipped gablehead stacks with sloping copes, and coped skews with decorative skewputts.
