This house near Maisley isn't shown on the 1872 Ordnance Survey map, so presumably dates from the late 19th century. It is just above the site of the former Maisley Lime Works, which was already disused by 1872. The limeworks lay on an outcrop of Upper Dalradian limestone which can be traced from Shetland to Kintyre, and again in Ireland.
