This building is located alongside Renton Road, at the entrance of a driveway leading to Image, which was built in 1866-68 for John Aiken (see that link for further details). For further information about the gate and gatepiers that are shown in this photograph, see the listed building report: http://portal.historic-scotland.gov.uk/designation/LB1163 (at Historic Environment Scotland). However, one correction should be made to what is said there: the first owner was John Aiken (the correct spelling of the surname); James, named in that report, was his eldest son.
