Barone Park is a working farmsteading that comprises a mixture of 19th century buildings and large modern sheds, which was not recorded on the date of visit. ‘Barrone Park’ is depicted as two buildings on a mid-18th century estate map (Foulis 1758-9), and a later estate map (May 1780-82) shows three buildings and a yard, detailed in a contemporary inventory (May et al 1782-1827). The 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Buteshire 1869, Sheet CCIV) depicts six roofed buildings, those at the E end later developing into a courtyard that shown on the 2nd edition of the map (Buteshire 1869, Sheet CCIV.SW).
