Statement of Interest

A simple farmhouse and associated courtyard with the majority of its original features in place. Of particular note are the 12-pane timber sash and case windows, terracotta cans and bipartite fanlight. Like Glenmore and Kilwhinleck (see separate list entries, North Bute Parish), Edinbeg is a good, if modest example of a single storey working Bute farm.
