Description
The Manse Gates and Barn, located on Station Road in Duns, is an early 19th-century structure. It consists of a single-storey, six-bay barn that is made of rubble stone and features attached gatepiers.
The barn has a blank western face towards Castle Street, with a single small window on the left side. There is a link wall connecting to a gatepier at the northwest corner. The eastern elevation includes two boarded doors located in the second and fourth bays from the left, while the remaining bays have boarded-up windows.
Both gable ends of the barn are blank, and there is a brick stack at the northern apex. The roof is covered with grey slates and has ashlar coped skews.
The gates are marked by square ashlar gatepiers, which have a base course, sunken panels, a cornice, and ball finials. The link walls, which are saddleback coped, are largely demolished to the north.
