It was part of the estate of William James Thomas Galbraith advertised for sale on in 1851 and 1852. At the time the building was described as a 'thatched house of two stories, not in good repair but as the out-offices are excellent and the lawn and aspect cheerful, it would suit for a Gentlemen's residence'.
