At one time there were at least 3 similar houses at the entrances to "Culzean Castle" ,Pennyglen lodge was my home which was similar to the above house but sadly it was demolished to make way for a road, the other house was just demolished "sadly enough"

Oh David it's magnificent :D.....you were very lucky to live in such a beauty! It reminds me of houses we'd see in fairy tale books.

I can't believe they'd demolish treasures such as the one above. :(

Country houses were that way here too for many years David (they'd have a bathroom but no plumbing attached to it). Here those ouside bathrooms were called outhouses .

At my Grandmother's farm they had a 6 seater (there were 12 children in that highlander family ;).
