Tomdoran, Glen Road, Dunblane

Tomdoran is a Jacobethan villa dated 1865. It is a two-storey, five-bay building of irregular plan, with an M-gable and numerous gablets breaking the eaves. The walls are constructed from red sandstone rubble with yellow ashlar margins, featuring long and short quoins, a base course, a dividing band, and a moulded eaves course.

The north-west (principal) elevation has a slightly advanced gabled bay to the outer right, featuring a canted ground floor window that corbels out to a chamfered upper storey with a moulded panel in the gablehead. A depressed-arch doorway is set within a moulded rectangular frame in the gabled bay to the left, with a shouldered bipartite window above. A corbelled wallhead stack sits to the left of the gablehead. The two central bays have regular fenestration, while the outer left bay has a bipartite ground floor window and a corbelled bipartite first floor window with a gable breaking the eaves.

The south-east (rear) elevation is three bays wide, with irregular fenestration in the centre, including a gabled wallhead dormer window breaking the eaves, flanked by a battered wallhead stack. The flanking outer bays are gabled, the bay to the right slightly projected.

The north-east (side) elevation is three bays wide, featuring a regular fenestration pattern in the centre and an inscribed panel bearing initials above a ground floor window. A gabled bay to the left has a corbelled window to the first floor, and a gabled bay to the right has a stone-mullioned tripartite window to the ground floor.

The south-west (side) elevation is an M-gable, with a single-storey advanced gabled bay to the left gable, including a gable stack. To the right gable is a single-storey, crowstepped gabled bay, projecting north-west, featuring a pointed arch window within a chimneyed gable breaking the eaves, with a garage entrance below. Two advanced bays are linked by a gated wall to form a service yard. A tall bipartite, shouldered-arch stair window is positioned between the principal gabled bays.

The windows are timber-frame sash and case with plate glass. Other details include kneelered and coped skews, bracketted skewputts, grey slates with lead flashing, and cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior has been refurbished as a residential nursing home, but ornate plasterwork and timber-panelled doors and dadoes remain largely preserved.
