NS3540 : Perceton House

taken 18 years ago, near to Perceton, North Ayrshire, Scotland

Perceton House
Perceton House
Now one of North Ayrshire Councils buildings. In the early 14th century the land became the principal residence of a member of the Stewart family. The old stockade was removed and a moat excavated, probably around a new manor house. In the late 1400s following a period of absorption in larger estates the site again became a principal residence, to one Ninian Barclay. This resulted in the building of a new mansion which was demolished in the 1720s, when another new owner constructed the present Perceton House.
