The photo shows Craigview House as seen looking northwest over a wheat field. Craigview House is a late Georgian country house which is believed to date from the late 18th century and it is shown on a map of 1792. In 1843, it became a Free Church Manse at the time of the Disruption when the Free Church broke away from the established Church of Scotland. In the mid 1970s, the house was acquired by the celebrated landscape painter James Morrison and his wife. The property contains an artist’s studio which was converted from a former dairy building.
