	Craigends House - The House
		Houston House, for example, was redeveloped soon after Craigends, but this was not a success and it was not until it was again rebuilt under David Thomson in 1892 that it took on its present form, with the obvious Baronial influence.
		Craigends' fate is indicatative of the shift in British society in the twentieth century, as ownership of the land has passed from the few to the many.
		Craigends is perhaps a worst case scenario, and a lesson still to be learned in some quarters.
