Inveresk, Lower Oakfield And Toberargan Road, Pitlochry

Inveresk is a house located on Lower Oakfield and Toberargan Road in Pitlochry, dating from the later part of the 19th century. It is a single-storey and attic structure with a rectangular plan, featuring three bays. The exterior is constructed from squared and snecked rubble, accented with droved sandstone dressings. Notable architectural details include a partial moulded string course, corbels, and openings with basket and segmental arches. The windows are fitted with stone mullions and chamfered arrises.

The south elevation is symmetrical, with the central bay at ground level showcasing a timber porch that has a pediment and finial. This porch is flanked by stone plinths that support paired square timber pillars with decorative capitals. Above the porch is a double-arched tympanum detail leading to a part-glazed two-leaf timber door. The slightly advanced flanking bays each feature a wide-centre, basket-arched, canted three-light window, which is topped by a string course that incorporates a ropework-moulded panel. The left window includes a heraldic bird and the motto 'I BYDE MY TIME'. The outer angles of these bays lead to large chamfered dormer gablets with bipartite windows, pendant finialled dormerheads, and decorative cast-iron finials.

The west elevation, facing Toberargan Road, has a gabled design with two windows at ground level and a blinded window in the gablehead. The east elevation mirrors the west but has an additional blinded window on the ground right. The north elevation is irregular, featuring a catslide roof that extends over an altered lower projection at the rear.

The windows throughout the house consist of two-pane upper sashes above plate glass lower sections at the ground and gablehead, with plate glass in the attic, all set in timber sash and case frames. The roof is covered with grey slates and features paired polygonal ashlar ridge stacks. The eaves overhang with plain bargeboarding, kingposts, and decorative finials, while cast-iron downpipes are fitted with decorative rainwater hoppers.

The property is enclosed by coped rubble boundary walls, which include a decorative cast-iron gate and gatepiers on the west side.
