Description

Booth Of Lunna is a mid-18th century single-storey and attic building that originally served as a trading booth. It has a three-bay symmetrical layout with a gabled wing centered at the rear, forming a T-plan. The walls are made of harl-pointed rubble.

The south elevation is symmetrical, featuring a wide doorway in the center bay, with narrower and lower doorways in the flanking bays. The west elevation has the gable end of the principal range advanced to the right, with a small square window in the gablehead. There is a stone forestair in the re-entrant angle with the rear wing on the left, and a slit ventilator to the left.

On the north elevation, the gable of the rear wing is advanced at the center, with a slit ventilator at ground level and a pair of smaller ventilators in the gablehead flanking the center. Forestairs are located on either side of the wing, providing access to doorways in the re-entrant angles to the right and left.

The east elevation mirrors the west elevation, but the gable advanced at the left is blank. The building features rubble apex stacks at the gables, stone copes, and is flanked by rubble and concrete skew copes.
