An old shooting lodge stands on the south side of Old Bridge of Dye. It is depicted on the OS 1st and 2nd edition maps in much the same configuration as today. Dated 1778, modernised 1947. It is now a substantial, traditionally detailed, early single and 2-storey, 4-bay house, which was converted from shooting lodge, situated adjacent to Bridge of Dye in prominent position overlooking Water of Dye. It has moulded skewputts with a date on the eastern one. There is a single large projecting lintel over paired principal elevation doors. There are a number of ancillary buildings including a 2- storey, L-plan, gabled former bothy of thin lime-harled rubble immediately to the west of the house, with two windows on the northern side comprising 9-pane glazing pattern over two larger casement opening panes, boarded timber door and gablehead window to the east. It has a slated roof with a broad harled stack and conically-capped ridge ventilator. There is also a single storey, 3-bay, rectangular-plan cottage with lean-to outshot immediately to the southwest. Long, single storey corrugated iron and timber ancillary, and tall semi-circular timber range to the northwest.
