The Top Club was the last time the building was used and there have been many posts on various sites about what has been planned for it. 

I think the info @Andy Millne posted some plan drawings a couple of years ago was last I saw on it. I haven't searched the NCC web site planning applications  lately as you spend ages going through all the documents and then months down the line everything is rejected  . This time I will just wait and see what happens. I can't find Andy's post so suspect it has been closed down.

Never knew when it was build Bill but Just found a photo from when it was up for sale and there is a date - 1777 - inscribed above the door :- 

 

Can't find an image of the front of the Laird's House since it's refurbishment - but it is now open :-
