The former Spottiswoode estate was the family seat of the Spottiswoodes. The estate house which dated back to around 1700 was demolished in 1938 but some features of the old estate still survive including the Gothick arches, the eagle (or clock lodges) and the old coach house and stable block. Spottiswoode is most famous for Lady Jane Scott, who wrote the refined version of the song ‘Annie Laurie’.
