Background
History
There is evidence that the land on which the house now stands had been inhabited from as early 1700 BC when the village of Cambusbarron was a permanent community. The discovery of fragments of Roman glass nearby gave weight to local 19th century tradition that the house was built on the site of a Roman villa, however this theory is now considered unlikely. A record of the current structure can be seen on the North East section of John Grassom’s 1817 map of the ‘County of Stirling’. The estate originally consisted of the house, stables and an orchard.
