Auchendinny House was originally a possible 16th or 17th century stone defensible house. A symmetrical small rectangular mansion, linked by curved screen walls to two outlying flanking pavilions, now stands on the site. Designed and completed in the early 18th century, by Sir William Bruce, two earlier vaulted chambers are incorporated in the western part of the basement. Nearby is Old Woodhouselee Castle and 2 miles south-west is Uttershill Castle.
