Lonach Hall

Lonach Hall is a villa dating from 1845, with later extensions and a refurbishment in 2003, alongside a hall built in 1896 that features a notable interior. The two buildings were combined to serve the Lonach Society. The villa is a two-storey, three-bay structure with gabled roofs, extended at the rear, and has overhanging eaves, open pedimented gables, and dormerheads. It is constructed from rubble, squared for dressings with harl pointing, and has pointed harl on the sides and rear.

The symmetrical entrance elevation faces south and features an advanced gabled bay at the center, which has a tall doorway beneath a shield panel inscribed with the date 1845 and an arrowslit in the gablehead. The first-floor windows break the eaves into the dormerheads. The villa has replacement 12-lying-pane glazing patterns in timber sash and case windows, with timber mullioned bipartites at the ground floor and timber 4-pane sash and case windows on the first floor. The roofs are covered with grey slate, and the eaves are enclosed with profiled bargeboarding. Coped ashlar stacks with cans complete the exterior.

Inside, there is a dog-leg staircase featuring metal balusters that bear portrait profiles of men in bonnets.

The hall, built in 1896, is a tall single-storey structure with a semicircular barrel-vaulted roof made of corrugated iron, resting on a rubble base course with battered ashlar coping. It includes timber mullions and transoms. The semicircular section is disguised with a Dutch gable end, and there is a door at one end with a box canopy and a four-light fanlight, flanked by four-light windows.

The timber glazing patterns consist of two-pane lower sections and multi-pane upper sections. The bowed corrugated roof is complemented by timber bargeboarding.

Inside the hall, the timber-lined boarded interior features a barrel-vaulted roof. There is a recessed minstrels' gallery on the west side, framed with fluted pilasters and a depressed-arch architrave, along with a raised platform that is boarded. A further raised platform, which is panelled, is located at the north end. The main entrance features part-glazed, chevron boarded two-leaf doors, with coloured glass and lead astragals in the upper panels.
