Built by Lord Lovat for his wife Miss Leslie of Balquhain;

a small chapel and priesthouse was subsequently built outwith

the policies in 1854 prior to the sale of the estate to George

does not appear to incorporate earlier work; not shown in

Boulton's estate map of 1846 probably because it was intended

to remove it.
