A Category A listed cottage dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, but incorporating earlier materials,[1] it stands at the corner of Atholl Road and Larchwood Road. It was Category B listed until 1998 and was formerly a scheduled monument.

In 1881, Catherine McDougall, a 74-year-old retired dressmaker, lived in the cottage.[1]
