History
In 1840 farmlands at West Seaton were owned by the trustees[1] of Thomas Renny Strachan of Tarry[2] who was a descendant of Sir David Carnegie of Kinnaird. The trustees engaged the Dundee-based architect David MacKenzie I,[3] who was regarded as a very competent Gothic designer,[3][4] to produce plans and specifications for a house to be called West Seaton Farmhouse. Estimates for completing the house were sought via an advertisement in the Dundee, Perth and Cupar Advertiser dated 22 May 1840.[citation needed]
Structure
The house is of classic design with two-storeys, ashlar walls in the local pink sandstone, a slate roof and a projecting porch. On 11 June 1971 the house was category B listed by the Secretary of State.[5][6]
