Dist:0.6km<br/>Carmond House was originally built in 1680 by John Inglis, as a more commodious residence than his nearby Cramond Tower. This wing is later, probably built about 1760. The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historic Monuments of Scotland says, "Cramond House has no features of architectural importance", and it is apparently not a listed building. It was a nursing home and later the headquarters of the Scottish Wildlife Trust, but now (January 2012) is looking for a new tenant.

The skull and crossed bones indicating death. The hourglass indicating the passing of time. The sextons tools of spade and turf cutter.
