Details Farmstead, still in use, contemporary with Williamston House of 1825. A quadrangular, harled, courtyard steading with subdued dovecot tower. The OS 1st edition map shows a quadrangular steading with attached horsemill on the west side, two buildings to the east, a range of small conjoined structures (kennels) to the north, and a small structure and long range to the west. By the time of the 2nd edition the range to the west has been significantly reduced, or replaced by a small structure. The 2006 map shows that the steading is partly demolished to the north, where the kennels range at the north is shown as roofless. Current maps indicate that the north end of the west range of the steading and the kennels are disused, the north range of the steading is ruinous, and the horsemill has been removed. The buildings to the east of the steading are in use as cottages.
