The History of West Turret
The estate dates back to 1740 when it was purchased by Henry Dundas, later Viscount Melville. The buildings of the estate were refirbished in 1919 as a plaque over the door of West Turret testifies but the main house was destroyed by fire
The remains of it and the once splendid gardens are still visible. The garages with the chauffeur's lodgings above and the stables opposite are what have now been converted to form The Square of which West Turret is part.
