Home farm, c.1805, aggrandised with a clocktower by Alexander Ross, 1877 An excellent, if dilapidated, survival of its type, retaining original byres, stables (stall dividers removed), bothy, dairy, panelled tackroom (with original fittings) above a carriage house, granary above bull pens, and workshop ranges, all grouped round a cobbled court. Daniell's sketch of 1818 shows the classical arcaded frontage before Ross's clocktower disfigured its central pediment.
