Statement of Interest

The date is uncertain, but it is probably 17th century. The upper storey is possibly a later addition. The building is in a poor condition and is currently used for storage, 2001. Another building (now gone) stood between the S elevation of this property and the rear of Robertson's House and is evident on the 1860 map.
