 Craigmyle House : courtesy Bruce Gordon.
Graigmyle House An estate and former mansion in Aberdeenshire, Craigmyle House lay just east of Torphins and 6 miles northwest of Banchory. Built in 1676 by a branch of the Burnett family, it was extended and modernised by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1902 for R. P. Robertson of Glasgow and later the property of Thomas Shaw, Lord Craigmyle (1850 - 1939). However, Sadly, at a time of the introduction of taxation on large empty property, it was demolished in 1960.
