Summary[edit]

Description
English: Binniegreen This may have been the dower house of nearby Balquhatstone. "Though the building is greatly altered, enough of the original features remain on the north-west face to show that it originally possessed a central entrance with two windows on either side and five others set symmetrically at first floor level. The masonry is rubble and there is a cavetto eaves-course. The doorway, now changed to a window, shows a lugged roll-and-hollow moulding interrupted by blocks, and is surmounted by a moulded pediment containing the dated 1734. Apart, perhaps, for a small window with an unusual moulding, the South-east face is probably of a much later construction." [Adapted from Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland] The 8th Laird's sister Elizabeth is described as 'Elizabeth Waddell of Binniegreen' in her will which dates from the 1780s.
