Accessing Scotland's Past Project

Though Burnbrae was somewhat smaller than some of the other farms that made up the Nenthorn estate, it possessed the same range of buildings as its larger counterparts.

Among the buildings constructed here as part of the agricultural improvements was a row of farm cottages which, like the farmsteading and the farmhouse, are of nineteenth-century date. These would have provided accommodation for four farm workers and their families.
