Inverernan House, from 1764. The east elevation is, thanks to G Bennet Mitchell, 1935, a near reproduction of Bellabeg,
dated 1765, with a red granite ashlar front with cherry-cocking. (Formerly had a four-column Roman Doric porch.) The gatepiers of c.1828 are dwarf square piers with low wing walls. Good original timber and iron gates survive. The offices to the north of the house are two-storey, U-plan, harled with margins and with a low pitched broad-eaved roof and an
iron-columned verandah between advance wings, c.1830. (Reconstructed c.1828, and 1935, G Bennet Mitchell.)

The original farm offices of Inverernan estate, which are situated about 55m N of the main house (NJ31SW 10.00), are ranged around a W-facing open-sided courtyard. They are two-storey, with a low pitched, broad-eaved roof and there is an iron-columned veranda along the E range between the advance wings. Originally dating to about 1830, they were remodelled in 1935 by G Bennet Mitchell.
