Publication Account (1992)
KIRN BRAE. 'Broughallan', a villa built in cottage style about 1830, stood in wooded grounds on the N side of Kirn Brae until its demolition in 1987. It was two-storeyed and built of roughcast rubble with sandstone dressings, sash windows and pitched roofs with broad bracketed timber eaves. The building was of T-plan, with the main E block, 17m by 6.2m over all, having bowed N and S ends, and a service-wing extending 9m to the W. The polygonal ashlar built entrance-porch in the upper floor of the partly-sunk E front was reached by a massive flight of steps with iron balustrade, and the main public rooms flanked the entrance hall on the upper floor.
