Abstract: |
Demolition of a 1950's carpenter's workshop built against the outer face of the NE corner of the 17th-century garden wall at Pitmedden House revealed partial foundations of an earlier building on the site. The 1st and 2nd OS maps suggest that an apparently timber building of 1867 may have been rebuilt by 1899. However the irregularity and projection of some of the basal stones of the garden wall where it would have been hidden by a building, perhaps suggest that there may have been a building here, of stone or with stone foundations, from the time the garden wall was built in the 17th century. The structure appears to have been a mill with a diversion of the burn forming a lade outside the N gable, as shown on the 1867 and 1899 OS maps. J C Murray 2015. |
