Description
Tullochan Farmhouse is an earlier 19th-century farmhouse with slight alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is a two-storey, three-bay rectangular-plan building constructed of painted rubble, featuring a base course, a band course, and painted ashlar cills.
The south elevation, which is the main facade, has three bays that are symmetrically arranged and grouped towards the center. It includes a pilastered and corniced door surround with a smaller door opening and a three-pane fanlight above. There are flanking windows, and three windows on the upper floor. Circa 1950s gabled dormers are also grouped at the center.
On the north elevation, there is a large stair window at the center, with flanking windows on both the ground and first floors. A lean-to scullery porch with a corrugated roof is located at the center of the ground floor.
The east and west elevations each have a window at the center of the ground floor, with an additional window on the first floor to the left of the east gable. The windows are 12-pane timber sash and case style, and the roof is covered with grey slate, featuring Velux roof lights. The building has coped apex stacks with circular cans.
The interior was not seen in 1995.
Originally, there was a large quadrangular-plan steading at the rear of the farmhouse, which likely dates from the mid to late 19th century and was converted to outbuildings in the earlier 19th century. These outbuildings are made of white-washed rubble.
The south range consists of a two-storey, three-bay near-symmetrical former farmhouse at the center, with the upper floor reused as a granary. The ground floor has a central door with a sliding wooden door, flanked by windows—one to the left is blind, while the one to the right is an 8-pane sash and case. There is a boarded door to the outer right, with a two-pane letterbox fanlight above it. A hoist door is located at the center of the first floor, with a pulley to the right, and flanking narrow windows—one of which is missing. The single-storey wings on either side include an outer right wing that has a piend roof and connects to a cattle court at the rear.
The north range features a quadrangular-plan, white-washed cattle court with a corrugated roof attached to the rear left of the main block. There is a window on both the ground and first floors to the right of the granary building, along with lean-to brick piggeries located at the rear of the cattle court.
