Full Description
A stone pillar and shed were noted by ARCH's Evanton Wartime Remains project in 2013. The stone pillar was on the side of the road and similar to others found on Novar estate. It pre-dates the wartime buildings, and was presumably part of Newton House. Beside the pillar was a wooden shed, which has wrought iron hinges, again suggesting pre-war date. Although in the area of the military airfield, the building was probably not used by the military. Contributor: Catriona Fraser <1>
