Old Photograph Rosehaugh House Scotland

Old photograph of Rosehaugh House in Avoch on the South East coast of the Black Isle in Scotland. Sir Roderick Mackenzie of Scatwell built a house here in 1798. James Fletcher originally from Avoch bought the estate in 1864 having made a fortune in Liverpool. The existing house was much enlarged in 1872 by Alexander Ross which formed a relatively small part of the eventual house. Fletcher’s son James Douglas employed William Flockhart, a London Scot architect to carry out a complete remodelling and major extension between 1898 and 1903. The house was demolished in 1959.
