NT 5005 7775 Camptoun Steading was recorded during July 2007 prior to residential development in accordance with
a condition to planning consent. As it survives, the steading is largely of mid 19th-century date, with most of the buildings
probably constructed around 1857, as suggested by the date stone set in the granary wall. However, parts of the SW range derive from an earlier layout which is depicted on the OS map of 1854. The earlier components include a barn or byre, and a structure which may have been related to threshing activities, although no trace of a windmill suggested by cartographic sources is evident. It is considered likely that these remains derive from the late 18th or earlier 19th centuries.
