Details Former stables, now in residential use, built in 1850 by Thomas Mackenzie. It is a neo-Tudor H-plan, low two-storey ashlar fronted building with plain coped parapets, a square central tower with a four-centre arch of two splayed orders, a three light window above, a corbelled and crenellated parapet with roundel for the clock and a taller octagonal angle turret at the back. There are two-window links to advanced wings, which have one-window gable fronts. Hoodmoulded square-headed two-light windows are used. To the rear is a plain pinned rubble elevation with a short central back wing that has octagonal shafted chimneys. The roofs are slated with diamond paned lantern lights. Originally the building had diamond paned glazing throughout.
