Police Station, Hill Street, Dufftown

The building is a police station and house located on Hill Street in Dufftown, designed by Duncan MacMillan and dated 1897. It is a two-storey structure with three bays and features an irregular three-bay return elevation facing Hill Street. The exterior is constructed of grey granite rubble, with significant use of contrasting bullfaced dressings.

The main entrance on the symmetrical York Street elevation has a central door flanked by bipartite windows. Large gabled dormers with skewputts, elongated finials, and bipartite windows are prominent features. The Hill Street entrance, which serves the police station, is flanked by narrow windows and has a gabled upper storey with a single narrower gabled dormer that resembles the main frontage. The windows contain 3- and 6-pane glazing. The flat skews are accentuated with exaggerated scroll skewputts, and the building has bullfaced ridge and wallhead coped stacks. The roof is slate with a tiled ridge.

At the rear, rubble walls enclose a yard, with an entrance marked by square bullfaced ashlar gatepiers that feature shallow scroll decorations.
