Description

The Old Inn Cottage comprises two blocks set at an angle, located near Drip Bridge by Stirling. The southern block is a two-storey, three-window building from the 18th century. It is harled with backset margins, and features stone chimneys. A bow window was added around 1825. The northern block is also two-storey and similarly harled, with swept dormer heads. Both blocks have been spoiled by more recent modernisation, and feature recent dormers.
