Statement of Interest

Kinloss Abbey and lands passed to Brodie of Lethen,

Nairnshire. Abbey became a quarry; it was recorded in 1798

that 'The remaining part of the stones were, some years ago,

employed in building a granary, by a descendant of this

Alexander Brodie...'. The barn/granary at Abbey Farm is most

probably the buildings referred to.

The granary appears to have been the centre-piece of a U-plan

court; remains of circa 1800 farm buildings stand roofless

at S.
