Description
Pitmain House, located in the Highland Folk Museum on Duke Street in Kingussie, dates from around 1790, with additions and alterations made between 1830 and 1840. This is a two-storey, symmetrical five-bay dwelling featuring an earlier 19th century gabled wing that projects to the west.
The central door is concealed by a later single-storey gabled porch. On either side of the porch are later tripartite windows from the 1830-40 period, which have wooden mullions. There are small first-floor windows in bays 2 (which is blocked) and 4, and these windows are raised through the wallhead in later 19th century gabled dormers located in bays 1, 3, and 5. The glazing is primarily composed of 2-, 9-, or 12-pane configurations.
The projecting gabled wing to the west features tripartite windows on both the ground and first floors. Additionally, there is a two-storey, two-bay wing at the rear. The house has end, ridge, and wallhead stacks, and is topped with slate roofs.
