Baronald House Stables, Glasgow Road, Lanark

Early 19th century U-plan steading, remodelled at time of 1890s estate improvements by Sir John Burnet in 17th century Scot's style. Rubble-built in local brown sandstone with contrasting droved and chamfered cream sandstone dressings, later dressings stugged; crowstepped gables and beaked skewputts; pitched slated roofs with lead ridge flashing; gable stacks. Single-storey and single-storey and loft, open to E. E entrance flanked by pair tall 'relocated ashlar piers, square on plan with chamfered arrises and flat pyramid caps.

The stable block, unlike house and lodge, was not entirely re-built by Sir John Burnet, the former U-plan steading shown as "Baronald Farm" on the 1st edition OS map (1864) being simply remodelled. (Historic Scotland)
