Back of Keppoch, formerly a boat building centre Among various good examples of the local vernacular, is Sunnymead, an earlier 19thcentury barn/byre range with later stable. The barn has rounded corners corbelled out to hold a slate roof (replacing thatch), slit vents, and a drainage vent below a small low window at the byre end. Another building type found at intervals along this shell-white coast is the comfortable lodge or farmhouse of the later 19thcentury, like Glenancross, flanked by an elongated U-plan steading court.
