Background
History
Moffat Cottage was built in the early 19th Century, and was the home of the father of the missionary Robert Moffat (1795-1883). Moffat was the first man to translate the bible into an African language, and was a pioneer of the Kuruman Mission. David Livingstone, Moffat's son in law, is believed to have lived in the building during his first return to Britain between 1856 and 1857. The cottage later served as a doctors surgery, before returning as a private residence. In December 1979, Moffat Cottage received Category C listed status from Historic Scotland.
