Nisbet's Tower
Built in the early 19th century and named, presumably, after John Nisbet, for whom Gunsgreen House was built about 1753. 'The Buildings of Scotland' says that it was probably part of a coach-house and stables. The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland describes it as a doocot https://canmore.org.uk/site/165426/eyemouth-gunsgreen-house-dovecot but this may have been a later adaptation, perhaps replacing an original window with a panel of nine entry holes for doos. It is a Category B Listed building http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB31134.
