Abstract: |
A Level 2 standing building survey was carried out on 29 January 2016. At least five phases of development were identified but these buildings have had several major and many minor changes since the 18th century. In the 18th century a two storey house with attic and basement was constructed with parkland and views to the south. Two wings were added using the same decorative sandstone features including raised sandstone string courses with large windows utilising the string course for lintels and sills, harled between the sandstone quoins and jambs. The W and E wings were extended and a N wing added with stables, bothy and other agricultural buildings, possibly in the late 18th or early 19th century. The wings were joined to the Phase 1 house and apertures opened and a corridor added running the full length of the N side of the Phase 1 house. The 1st Edition OS map shows corridors on the W and N side of the courtyard but these have since been demolished. There are several small additions within the courtyard, porch on the W façade and squash court added on the E façade in the 20th century by Brigadier Knox and his wife Elizabeth. |
