Description
An account of the resource
<p>A fine 17C haa (country house) located on its own island, built by James Mitchell of Girlsta, replacing Robert Cheyne's earlier fortified house. In late 19C, new owner Herbert Anderton (a Yorkshire woollen mill-owner) added a parallel wing with massive round tower (castellated and corbelled) with linking baronial hall, which includes a minstrel gallery, massive fireplace and full height stained glass windows. Exquisite original interiors and careful refurbishments. Contemporary shorebase on mainland. </p><p> </p>
