Keys to the Past Web Site: This house was built in the mid-19th century but seems to have been built around an earlier building. Old documents from 1541 record a bastle at Carrycoats and some of the walls of the house are like those of a bastle, built of rough rubble walling with large roughly-shaped corner stones. The oldest part of the building measures 7.7m by 6m and its walls are about 0.9m thick.
