(NS 3823 6892) Killallan House (Tranter) Kilellan Old Manse (SDD List 1963) is a small, strongly-built house of late 16th or early 17th century date. It was used as a manse for generations until 1771, when Kilallan parish was suppressed. It is oblong, with a semi-circular stair tower near the E end of the N front; two storeys and a garret in height, it has a slate roof and cross-stepped gables. It was extensively restored about 1939 and is in excellent condition.
