Description

Ross Steading and Horsemill is a large farm complex from the early 19th century, featuring an F-plan layout with a circular horsemill positioned in the re-entrant angle to the east, alongside a separate L-plan implement shed range to the southeast. The building is constructed from random rubble with large dressed ashlar quoins, and some sections are painted. There are raised cills, a variety of window openings, and some altered openings, along with later brick lean-to extensions and slatted timber doors.

The northwest elevation showcases a long range with a central segmental-arched pend that leads into a courtyard. To the left, there are small window openings located below the wallhead and a pair of hayloft doors. An off-centre tall, gabled timber machinery-house with a pulley is also present, along with a lean-to single-storey range on the outer right.

The southeast elevation consists of two courtyards. On the left, there is a U-plan courtyard featuring a central three-timber gabled range with four segmental-arched openings to the right and a pend at the far right. Piend-roofed ranges enclose the courtyard on the east and west sides, displaying a variety of openings, some of which have been altered. To the right, an L-plan courtyard contains the slated, conical-roofed circular horsemill in the re-entrant angle, which also has altered openings. A cartshed to the northwest features six square-headed cart bays supported by ashlar and Aberdeen bond piers, with a variety of openings to the granary located above, just below the wallhead. The range to the left includes five cast-iron tie-rods on each floor and some tiny openings on the upper floor.

The southwest elevation has some altered openings at ground level, a hayloft door to the left, and a lean-to bay on the outer left. The northeast elevation provides an entrance from the road, showcasing a blank gable of the cartshed and granary to the right, alongside a long low piended range to the left.

The implement shed to the southeast is an open six-bay L-plan structure with a slightly swept roof supported by cast-iron columns.

The interior, partially seen in 2011, features open timber ceilings. The northwest range has a cobbled floor with a drainage channel, along with some timber feeding troughs and stalls. The granary includes a timber staircase and some internal machinery, while the horsemill showcases open timber beams. The windows consist of small-pane glazing in timber sash and case and casement styles, with doors and blocked openings made of boarded timber. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are cast-iron downpipes.
