Dirleton, Main Road, 7 Castle Mains Cottages

Cottage (19th Century)

What is recorded here

No bedroom fit the master's measurements, so the whole house leaned into a new shape. The builder drew a room large enough for his pride, then forced the neighbouring walls to obey. The chamber is finished, but the doorway leads nowhere because the house refused to build the rest.
