Steading, Badenyon

The steading at Badenyon, dating from around 1830, is a largely unaltered single-storey building, partly with lofts, arranged in a U-shape. It forms a group with Begg's House. The structure features monumental stone-lintelled, square-headed cart arches, supported by a finely decorated centre pier with snecking. The walls are constructed of snecked rubble, complemented by ashlar quoins.

On the south elevation, which faces the courtyard, the design is symmetrical, with advanced gabled ranges on either side of a recessed central range. The left gable has two square-headed cart arches, with the decorative snecked centre pier leading to a voussoired joint above, flanked by large tooled granite lintels and two loft openings above. The right gable includes a doorway on the left, evidence of a blocked opening on the right, and two loft openings above. The recessed face and returns display a variety of openings, some of which are blocked.

The timber windows show evidence of a 6-paned glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slates and features small cast-iron rooflights. The gables are finished with ashlar coped skews and block skewputts.
