Distillery, built in 1896-7 by architect Charles C Doig. It consists of a 3-storey, 7-bay malt barn, with long elevations facing North and South. It is constructed from rubble, with tooled ashlar dressings. There is regular segmental-headed fenestration to the malt floors in both the North and South elevations, with small windows lighting the first and second floors. There is a slate roof with a square ventilator. At the East gable, there is a square harled rubble kiln, terminating with a slated piended ogee roof and leaded pagoda cupola. Further to the East, there are 2- and 3-storey mash, wash back and still houses, and a 4-bay range of 2-storey and attic bonded stores. The unique drum maltings at the West occupies a smaller area than a conventional floor maltings, and so it is unusually tall to create more space. It was the first Scottish Malt Distillery to install a steam driven mechanical malting system. Production began in 1897 and continues today, although the maltings are no longer in production.
