A well-preserved 17th Century L-plan house in a large walled garden. Originally constructed 1580-90, it was bought in 1607 by Joseph Marjoribanks, an Edinburgh Burgess. During the 17th Century it was owned by the Hamiltons of Preston. At the end of the last Century it was owned by East Lothian Council, but was sold in 1999 and returned to private ownership. NB Moderator: GPS and OS 1:25000 have this definitely in NT3873, not in NT3974 which has other images.
