A double L-plan house built in 1626 by Sir John Hamilton. The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland records several alternative names that hint at some of its history: Magdalens' House, The Barracks, and Dower House. It now belongs to the National Trust for Scotland but is let and not open to the public. See also Image] and http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/53682/details/prestonpans+hamilton+house/
