Auchenhove Home Farm

It's relatively unusual to find a 'home farm' in Scotland. Farms run directly by an estate are more commonly called 'Mains of ....'. Interestingly, this farm is on the second edition six-inch map, but not on the first edition, so it must have been built in the second half of the 19th century on a greenfield site. That too is quite unusual.
