The houses of Inverallochy, like those elsewhere on the North Sea coast, were traditionally built with their gables to the sea, so that the smallest area of wall was exposed to severe weather. Originally they would probably not have had windows in the seaward gable, though most have had a window added. The nearest house is more recent.
