Statement of Interest

The Ballogie Estate was, in 1650, called Tillysnaught, and belonged to the Roses of Kilravock. It then passed to the Forbes family, followed by the Innes family and their relatives the Farquharsons. When the Innes family of Ballogie and Balnacraig died out the Farquharsons took on their name, becoming Farquharson-Innes. In 1850 the estate was sold to Mr James Dyce Nicol, a former MP for Kincardineshire. He was described as "a progressive landowner, spending large sums of money on his properties". Bogieshiel Lodge, formerly Upper Bogieshiel, is situated on a hillside overlooking much of the Ballogie estate. Although originally traditional in style, the addition of the bowed bay to the S with gothic windows is unusual on the estate.
