Report - Eastend House, Lanarkshire - June 14

[H1971]

This was my 2nd visit to this beautiful old mansion. It was obvious to see she is in a very poor state now, which is such a shame. It would be lovely to see her restored to her former glory.
Visited with AuntieKnickers, The Stig and Skapunkmetalskater.
History -
Set in among the land holdings of the Carmichael estate, one of the few remaining clans to maintain ownership of the same lands as their ancient ancestors, Eastend House is a lovely 37 room stately home spread over 4 floors and is built around a 16th century keep with extensions and additions being added in various styles giving the building a bit of a mis-matched appearance. Originally occupied by an exile branch of the Carmichael family who split from the main trunk in 1500 it was passed down through the second branch of the family until being bought and brought back into the main family by Chief Richard Carmichael in 1989.

I've made my mind up, I will be hitting this place soon.

Thanks for sharing the cracking photos. Btw, how are the stairs looking?

The stairs are sort of ok atm, however don't think they will last for long. She is going downhill rapidly I'm afraid
