Stable, Kerfield, Innerleithen Road, Peebles

Kerfield Cottage is an early 19th-century building, incorporating earlier fabric and seeing later alterations. It is a picturesque grouping of a house, barns, three courts, a yard, and former stables arranged around a burn, with remains of 18th-century brewery buildings included within the complex. A walled garden lies to the east. The entire design is constructed primarily of whinstone.

The main house is a two-storey and attic, three-bay structure set within a walled garden to the north of the wider group. Red sandstone dressings, raised margins, and quoin strips provide contrast, with a regular fenestration pattern. A corniced doorway is located in the left bay, featuring a panelled door and a three-pane fanlight. The centre bay features a blind window on the first floor. A gable end has a window on all floors, while the rear elevation is irregular. A single-storey, piend-roofed link connects to a two-storey, three-bay range to the south, forming a right angle. A further single-storey and attic, three-bay range adjoins to the east, acting as part of the boundary wall, with many blocked openings to the left. Attic windows break the eaves with piended dormerheads. A three-bay shed, incorporating a garage, is situated in the northeast corner.

Boundary walls along the road have rubble coping, square coped gate piers, and a walled garden adjoins to the east. Timber sash and case windows with 12 panes are present throughout, along with grey slates and coped rubble stacks.

The stable is a single-storey, elongated, L-plan building built over the burn to the west of the group, with the burn flowing beneath a culvert arch in the south gable. Four doors face east, towards the yard, while two openings on the broader, piended north end have been filled in to create further stables facing a secondary court. A blank west elevation incorporates a stack. Grey slates cover the roof, and there are ashlar coped skews to the south, ridge ventilators, and cast-iron skylights.

The courtyards are enclosed by quadrant walls and whin gate piers with ball finials to the south. The coach house is a two-storey building in the style of a toy fort, situated to the south of the house and facing the yard. It features an open carriage arch at the centre, flanked by narrow windows and Tudor-arched openings, with various slappings at ground level. The west elevation displays a modern garage door on the right, a filled-in arch with a door on the far left, and a modern window between. The first floor is punctuated by two blind oculi and four blind crosses, along with a window above the archway and a further window on the far left. Corner bartizans are present. The east elevation has a wallhead raised by a continuous slate-hung dormerhead, three windows, and a concrete forestair leading to a door.

The barn range and walled yards are set at right angles to the coach house, forming the north side of a walled inner court; this is the same range as the south side of the main house. A forestair is located to the left, and four stable doors are centrally placed, with loft access above each. A large window is positioned to the right. To the east, beyond an inner dividing wall of the court, is a taller, truncated pavilion with an archway blocked. The east court includes a covered store to the north, numerous blocked openings that indicate earlier uses, and an opening to the walled garden beyond. A bartisan is located at the southeast corner. The south wall steps up at the centre, with machiolations and a large blind archway on the south side.
