Gray's Cottage was built c.1900 to house Gray who was James Fletcher's valet. The house is built in a Surrey inspired vernacular style with its half-timbering and tile hanging. It relates stylistically to other buildings on the estate such as the Dairy complex and was probably designed by William Flockhart. DSA agrees with the attribution and gives William Harvey Ross as the resident Clerk of Works during the re-development of the estate by Flockhart. The house later became the estate factor's house and has been sympathetically extended.
