Rockingham is shown on the 1st edition map. There has been some alteration at the rear of the building. Rockingham is among the finer examples of the cottage orne style of the Cove and Kilcreggan villas. The house belongs to the earlier feuing and development of lands along Rosneath Road by the developer John McElroy.
