Description

Jedneuk, also known as Bonjedward House, is a large, two-story farmhouse with Tudor detailing, largely rebuilt in the later 19th century but retaining an earlier core. The house is harled (roughcast) with cream sandstone ashlar dressings.

The northeast elevation, which serves as the main entrance front, features three bays. A projecting central bay, displaced to the right, has a steeply-pitched gable. The entrance is a panelled door with a 15-pane rectangular fanlight above and six-pane sidelights, set within a doorcase with chamfered reveals. An elaborate wrought-iron bracket supports a lamp above the door. A tripartite window sits above the door, and a blind arrowslit is visible in the gable apex, alongside a stack. Single windows are located on both floors of the flanking bays. A single-story, single-bay wing is slightly recessed to the right.

The southeast elevation also features three bays. An advanced gabled bay to the right has a canted window on a plinth at ground level with chamfered reveals, and a single window above with a hoodmould. The gablehead has blind, stepped, tripartite hoodmoulded arrowslits, and single windows are present on both floors of the bays to the left. A recessed two-story bay sits to the left, and a single-story bay extends to the outer left with a timber mullion and a bipartite window.

The southwest elevation is dominated by a blank gable to the right, featuring a truncated apex stack. A blank, single-story gable is centered, and the gable of the main house is visible behind it, with an attic window to the right and an apex stack. A two-story bay is set back to the left with bipartite windows on both floors. A boarded door is against the wall to the right.

The northwest (rear) elevation reveals a small service court enclosed by irregular single and two-story gabled ranges with irregular window placement and piend-roofed dormers breaking the eaves.

The windows are mostly 12-pane timber sash and case windows, with 4-pane windows in the bipartes and some upper floor windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and features coped ashlar stacks and skews with console skewputts (decorative projections at the corners of the roof).

The interior was not inspected in 1992, but is known to contain walls believed to be remnants of an old tower. The house is surrounded by rubble and red brick garden walls to the southwest, with a glazed timber lean-to greenhouse and furnace. Substantially rebuilt outbuildings, originally the Lothian Estate Office, are arranged in a single-and-a-half-story range to the northwest. A remarkable two-story lodge, with roughcast ground floor and stacks featuring long and short ashlar dressings, and a weatherboarded upper floor, stands to the north. The house includes walls of great thickness, likely remains of the original Bonjedward Tower.
