NJ5741 : Lessendrum House
taken 9 years ago, near to Drumblade, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Lessendrum House
Lessendrum was the seat of the Bissets, said to be the 'oldest established line in all Aberdeenshire' with Norman roots. In 1837 it was remodelled by Archibald Simpson, resulting in an elaborate Victorian pile described as a 'pocket Gothic ruin'. It was damaged by fire in 1928 and has been mouldering away ever since.
Link includes a photograph of the north elevation, which seems to have been the front of the building, but is now so overgrown as to be all but impossible to photograph. This is the west elevation.
