Before 1829 the manse of Alves was in a ruinous state
and the Minister granted (1829) $40 per annum in lieu of
manse until 1834 when the new manse was to be completed
on a site westwards of the old. The new site was agreed
for the new steading and walled garden by 1829 and these
were completed before the manse which was finished in
1835.
William Robertson is known to have worked for Mr
Alexander Forteath of Newton, one of the Heritors and
probably for Miss Brodie of Milton Brodie, another
Heritor.
