Late 18th century, with later alterations. U-plan court,
currently serving as stables. Rubble sandstone with
ashlar dressings. Ashlar piers to cartshed bays to NE

bays. Square leaded glazing patterns to certain windows.
Courtyard closed to SE, by semi-circular coped screen

easing course.

Statement of Interest

courtyard originally served as a sheep-pen, in parklands

of the Dalkeith estate, to W of Smeaton House.
