All that is now visible of the manse and long range that once stood immediately W of St Fittick's Church (NJ90SE 1) is a length of the ENE side of the range. Measuring 14.5m in length and 1.6m in height, the wall contains a blocked doorway close to its SSE end. The range and the manse are both depicted as roofed on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Kincardineshire, 1869, sheet iv and 1902, sheet iii.SE).
Visited by RCAHMS (JRS), 15 April 2002.
