Statement of Interest

Typical Culross small house with harled walls, 3-bay arrangement and pitched clay pantiled roof. It is possible that there were connecting doors between this and the adjacent house (now electricity substation) as seems evident in some other Culross houses. The garage replaces a shop which is shown in early-mid 19th century photographs held at the NMRS. This property was restored in 1967. For brief history of Culross Burgh see Culross, The Cross, The Study.
