Hi pitorian, thanks for the info but it must have been re-named as it has an engraved stone block above the door (not shown in these pics and looks recent) which says 'Corstorphine Hill Tower'

thanks for getting back to me waysted, i think i may havr seen the engraving, so you could be possible right, however i live in balfron loan which is 1000yards from the tower,, you could be well right as it was built in the late 18th century i think, its just knows locally as clermiston tower.

thanks for your input, love the pics keep up the good word mate.
