House of Gray (Gray House)

  • House & Family History: House of Gray is a charming early 18th century house with a creamy stuccoed exterior. After World War II the House was allowed to slip into dereliction; at one time it was without a roof. A program of restoration has been ongoing for some years, supported in part by Historic Scotland (the roof has been completely replaced). The House was listed for sale in the spring of 2005 for £800,000.

    Comments: The architectural historian John Mackay called the House of Gray "one of the prettiest seats in Scotland."
