Description
Leighton House in Haining, Dunblane, was designed by William Stirling in 1829. It incorporates restored elements from a church building into a courtyard-plan church office complex. The structure is made of squared and snecked yellow sandstone rubble, featuring ashlar quoins and margins, shouldered gable ends, a base course, a cill height string course, coped skews, and grey slates.
The south elevation, facing Cathedral Square, has a broad gable end with a central semicircular-arched five-light window that showcases cusped panel tracery. The shouldered gables are adorned with blind arcaded panels beneath the shoulders. The building abuts an adjacent structure on the left and features a low coped wall with a high courtyard wall behind it, linking to a free-standing former porch. The gabled porch has a pointed-arch entrance on the front and sides, topped with a stone cross finial at the apex of the gable. Clasped buttresses flank the street entrance. To the right, there is a broad single-storey gable end with a large plate glass window in the centre, and a coped low wall continues to the right of the porch, terminating in a gablet-capped corner pier.
At the rear of the street elevation, there is a range of rebuilt and modern single-storey buildings arranged around a central rectangular courtyard.
