Scope and Content Aerial view from south-west of Manderston House, Scottish Borders This aerial view shows the estate buildings associated with the house. Top left are the stables, built in 1895 to designs by John Kinross, they are luxuriously appointed with polished mahogany stalls, marble floors and under-floor heating. Top right is the home farm, and centre left are further formal gardens and glasshouses. In the centre are tennis courts, a horse-jumping area and the walled kitchen garden. The Manderston estate contains many specialised buildings and features often associated with large Country estates. These include a beautiful Swiss chalet-style boat house with balcony overlooking the lake, kennels, ornamental gates, statuary and summerhouses, a Chinese bridge, a vaulted dairy with marble walls, and a miniature tower-house for the lady of the house to take tea in. Manderston House as it appears today is mostly the result of an extensive remodelling of the 1790s house by its owner, Sir James Miller, in the early 1900s. He chose as his architect John Kinross (1855-1931), who created a Georgian-style mansion closely modelled on Lady Miller's childhood home of Kedleston Hall, Derbyshire, designed by Robert Adam.
