The building was originally built as the Free Church of Scotland manse and there is a date stone of 1843 above a ground floor window, which coincides with the breakaway of the Free Church from the established Church of Scotland at that time. There is also a date stone set higher up for 1887. This may have been when the building was altered. It is now a private residence.
