Any pics of the house or surroundings would be appreciated.

War Baby wrote:Going back to the Battles Burn discussion again, the attached photo was taken in the 1950's, and shows the path leading through the woods towards the Mansionhouse Road area. The Battles burn disappeared down under the ground on the left,
just in front of the bushes. Sometimes, especially when it rained, the flow was quite good but usually it was just a trickle. The dark area in the photo marks the line of the burn alongside the bushes. At this point in the woods, the Battles Burn had narrowed and was just a slit in the ground, almost hidden by grass. At the far end of the woods you can just see a wall, and this was the wall belonging to the back gardens of the houses in Mansionhouse Road.
