Statement of Interest

Although converted to residential accommodation the building retains significance as part of the ensemble of Murrayfield House, built in 1735 for Archibald Murray, probably by John Douglas. Earlier maps show an avenue of trees leading down the line of the present Succoth Avenue, and a walled garden to the south of the building.
