Old Manse of Towie, early 19th century. Tall former manse, with three-window frontage and steps up to door and the manse offices, U-plan and harled. The early 19th-century old schoolhouse has an eccentrically placed door and a single-storey schoolroom extension with large windows raised above the wallhead.
