Craigie Lodge, Longformacus

Craigie Lodge is a former manse dating to 1818, with subsequent additions and alterations. The original building was a two-story, three-bay rectangular structure, to which a gabled projection was later added to the center. A two-story, piended addition was constructed at the rear, and a flat-roofed addition extends to the east, creating an L-shaped layout. Single-story ancillary buildings enclose a courtyard at the rear.

The exterior is predominantly harled rubble, with some exposed rubble on the sides and rear. Window surrounds are long and short droved sandstone, and projecting sandstone sills are present throughout.

The southeast (entrance) elevation features the gabled projection centered with a tripartite window on the ground floor, having narrow side lights, and a single window above. Scrolled skewputts adorn the gablehead, topped by a corniced stack. A timber door with a plate glass fanlight is located on the return to the right. Single windows are recessed on the left and right sides at both ground and first floor levels. A modern conservatory is recessed on the outer left.

The southwest (side) elevation has a gabled wing to the right with a ground floor window in the outer right bay and a first floor window in the bay to its left. An attic light is offset to the right of the centre. An adjoining two-story wing features a modern conservatory on the ground floor in the outer right bay, a ground floor window in the bay to its left, and single windows in both bays on the first floor.

The northwest (rear) elevation displays a two-story wing off-set to the right, featuring two ground floor windows and a small first floor window in the outer left bay. A single-story outbuilding adjoins the recessed bay to the outer left with a window above.

The northeast (side) elevation showcases a gabled wing with a ground floor window in the outer left bay and an attic light offset to the left of the centre. Irregularly fenestrated single-story outbuildings are adjoined to the outer right.

The building predominantly features timber sash and case windows with 12 panes, except for the central tripartite window which has 10 panes overall with 5-pane side lights. Small rooflights are also present. The roof is covered with graded grey slate, with raised stone skews and cast-iron rainwater goods. Stepped and rendered apex stacks stand on the northeast and southwest sides, along with various circular cans. A corniced gablehead stack tops the southeast elevation, another has a single circular can, and a brick-built wallhead stack is located at the rear.

The interior was not inspected in 1997.

The ancillary structures consist of a single-story, rectangular range to the northeast, built as a lean-to against the rear courtyard wall. These are constructed with harl-pointed whinstone rubble, rubble dressings, boarded timber doors, 4-pane timber windows, corrugated-iron roofs raised sandstone skews, a brick-built stack at the centre, and a circular can. The interior was not inspected in 1997.

Rubble-coped rubble boundary walls enclose the site, with timber gates providing access.
