Old photograph of Granton House near Moffat, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. The two storey building in the Greek Revival style built between 1830 to 1840 was apparently struck by lightning in 1997, causing a devastating fire that gutted the building. Moffats of Clan Moffat were granted the feu of Granton and Reddings in 1342 by Sir John Douglas Lord of Annandale These remained the principal holdings of the family until 1628, when the lands passed to the Johnstones as a result of overwhelming debt.
