NMRS REFERENCE:
OWNER: N.M. Maclean
ARCHITECT: A. Marshall Mackenzie - additions.
Breda, 1894, A Marshall Mackenzie (Mackenzie and Matthews). The rather sawn-off appearance of this baronial edifice derives from the demolition in 1963 of the original house of Broadhaugh, which lay immediately to the W. Coursed red granite gives a gritty texture to the front which is dominated by the three-storey main block with circular conical-roofed entrance tower, balanced, just, by a diagonally-set angle-tower corbelled to square at the end of a single-storey-and-attic four-bay wing. Upper windows pedimented above wallhead throughout; all in slightly heavy Scots style.
Possible site of manor, castle or mansion. The building is empty at present.
