Description

The Haa of Bayhall is a 3-storey, 3-bay, symmetrical mid-18th century former laird's house, converted into 3 flats in 1978, with a 2-storey, 3-bay wing to the southeast gable, which is called Bayhall House. The building is harled rubble with ashlar margins and the House of Bayhall is painted white. In accordance with Section 1 (4A) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 the following are excluded from the listing: the pier, slipway and outbuilding to the southwest.

Both buildings have grey slated roofs, raised skews and gable chimney stacks. Both buildings have single-storey porches to the rear (northeast) and there are two window openings to the first floor of the northwest elevation.

The windows to the Haa of Bayhall are predominantly 12-pane replacement timber sash and case windows. Bayhall House has timber sash and case windows with various glazing patterns, including plate glass and 2-over 2-pane windows.

The interior was partially seen in 2016. The Haa of Bayhall has been converted to flats and the interior has been refurbished. There is an internal stairway with one rounded wall to the northwest. The interior of Bayhall House has a substantial amount of timber lining and there is a straight internal stair to the upper storey.

There are rubble garden walls to the north.
