Statement of Interest

Linlathen House was built for David Graham in 1705 and extended for Thomas Erskine by William Stirling circa 1830. The steading was dated 1770. Both house and steading were finally demolished in the 1980s. This lodge appears on the 1827 estate map and is the western of the two north lodges. The diamond glazing at the east porch is likely to be original and probably reflects the original glazing pattern for all windows.
