Description

Mossfennan House is a simple 18th century house that has been extended at both ends during the Victorian era, resulting in a long, low structure. The building features harled walls, quoins, and a piended ridge roof. To the far left, there is a large dining room and an upstairs drawing room, both of which have a splayed bay window. The center of the house has a pilastered doorway.
