039 A fine Modern Mansion pleasantly situated on the Banks of the Doon, about a mile E. [East] of the village of Dalrymple. Part of the outhouses have of late been converted into a farm-steading now known as Skeldon Mains, & the other portions are in very bad repair. The pleasence found which is extensive is well studded with huge old trees; although in everything about the place, there is a great want of that care and neatness, which is generally displayed about Gentlemen's Seats. Property of Mrs. Leslie Cunningham.
