The building bears the date 1833 and would have been used to store ice for the local salmon industry. It has been converted by Laird Henderson into a one-bedroom dwelling and was the subject of a fascinating edition of the Channel 4 television programme "The Restoration Man". The glass extension using electrically heated glass cost £40,000. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-restoration-man/4od#3137251 Image]
