Cringletie House

Cringletie House is a 19th century mansion built on the site of an old tower house.

The “tower and manor place” of Cringiltie are mentioned in 1633.

There appear to be some restored architectural details, such as heraldic panels and dormer pediments, which look like they may have come from an older building.
