Description

This mid 19th century service cottage and outbuilding are located to the northwest of Allt-na-Giubhsaich Cottages. The single-storey cottage features three bays and is constructed of rubble, mostly harled.

On the southeast elevation, the central bay has a boarded door with a letterbox fanlight, flanked by near-square windows. The northwest elevation includes a stone lean-to with a small window and a catslide roof on the right side. The northeast and southwest elevations are blank gabled walls. The front of the cottage has timber sash and case windows with a 12-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with graded grey slates and has a stone ridge, along with cast iron rooflights and raised skews. Gablehead stacks are present as well.

The outbuilding is gabled and features three doors on the northeast elevation, with the center door being broader. There is also a window and a small attic light on the gabled return to the northwest, and a wallhead brick stack is located to the left of the blank rear elevation.
