Statement of Interest

B Group with Prestongrange House, Prestongrange House Boundary Walls, Prestongrange House East Lodge and Prestongrange House South Lodge (see separate listings). Prestongrange North Lodge is probably contemporary with the interior alterations to Presongrange House, circa 1750 (see separate listing). The date 1858 and initials ROT incised in jamb of E doorway (S elevation) refer to an occupant of this date, rather than to any alteration to the lodge. The modern addition is similar in character to the original block in design. The interior contains no features of importance.
