An unroofed farmstead has been identified from oblique aerial views (RCAHMSAP 2009), about 100m W of Saltcoats Castle (NT48SE7). The three buildings are set around a farmyard with the main house on the W side.
The farmstead is depicted as roofed on the 1st Edition of the OS 6-inch map (Haddingtonshire, 1854, sheet 4) which annotates it as 'Saltcoats House', the Object Name Book of the Ordnance Survey (ONB) noting it as 'Saltcoats'. The Name Book describes the buildings as' A farm house having extensive offices (including a threshing machine) attached. Occupied by S B Sherriff, the property of Maj. Hope of Luffness' (Name Book 1853).
