Place & story
A bow-fronted addition
Kilbride House is a three-bay, two-storey house dated to about 1810 by the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage. A projecting bow-fronted extension alters one end of its south front, while the central entrance has a simple cut-limestone surround. The inventory records tower-house remains behind the residence and treats the possibility of earlier fabric within the house as uncertain. [2]
Gothic niches beside the road
The entrance gateway, dated to about 1840, has square limestone piers with pointed Gothic niches and fluted capstones. Wrought-iron gates hang between them, with curved sections of rendered wall extending on either side. [3]
