Gardens Cottage is a house in High Street West, Falkland, named after a former resident. It backs onto the old cemetery.
Listing description
Dated RACS1717 at lintel. Single-storey and attic limewashed rubble and modern Roman tile, small fenestration, one door now blocked as window.
Special features
Lintel.
Extensions
New occupiers have put skylight windows to rear and are now seeking retrospective planning permission.[1]
Former residents
Miss Margaret Shields (who lived to a great age - at least into her 90s). The house was sold to Margaret's father Patrick Shields by the Guardians of Michael Crichton Stuart in 1922 when Michael himself would have been about 7. Presumably to pay off death duties. When Margaret went into a nursing home the house had to be sold; it was bought by Margaret's niece Patricia Gardens in 1999. At this time the house still had its original flag stone floors and was very basic. Plans were made out and the garden wall was repaired sympathetically with lime mortar but no further works carried out. Patricia sold the house recently approx 2018.[1]
Further references
In 1904, "... the tenant of the property on the west side of the entrance gate to the Burying Ground, belonging to Falkland Estate and tenanted by Mrs George Ramsay, had a hole in the garden wall through which a large number of hens kept by her passed into the Burying Ground"[2]
It was noted from 2007 as a "Building at risk", but has now been reclassified as "Restoration in progress".[3]
