Fasque

Dublin Core

Title

Fasque

Description

Majestic castellated mansion in muted brown sandstone built for Sir Alexander Ramsay of Balmain.

Much has been written on Fasque over the years but none of it fully captures the significance and stature of the properties and landscape. Unfortunately Fasque has not been fully occupied for many years, and while it is still complete in many ways which have been lost with other comparable properties, it now requires a program of major repair to restore and preserve its original stature and stop this being lost for future generations..
