010 | This building appears to be a small part of an edifice which stands, about, 20 feet in height, and without a roof. About 30 years ago the late Mr Ker who was the proprietor repaired and rebuilt part of this structure, it is now in a good state of preservation and it is supposed to have been a fortified place, but there is no well founded tradition respecting it. There is a small farm house and offices beside it (Murieston Castle) which is at present unoccupied but in good repair, they are the property of the heirs of the late Mr Kerr |

Ordnance Survey - Midlothian county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Midlothian, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
