Lawhead House

Lawhead House

Lawhead House is about a mile outside the village of Tarbrax. It is on the Buildings at Risk Register. It was built in 1860 by David Souter Robertson who also built Auchengray Church in Auchengray. Also on the original Lawhead estate is a round do'cot, now derelict.

This was the site of a Castle owned by George Lockhart of Tarbrax, his son William Lockhart of Tarbrax, and his daughter Anne Lockhart, Countess of Aberdeen. She was an ancestor, nine generations removed on her mother's side, of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, a member of the British Royal Family.
