1699 CE
Craigiehall, a country house located close to Cramond, around nine kilometers (five point six miles) west of central Edinburgh, Scotland, is designed by Sir William Bruce, with input from James Smith, and completed in 1699 for the Earl of Annandale, who had recently acquired the Craigie estate through marriage.
It is a good surviving example of one of Bruce's smaller houses, and sets a pattern for such villas in the Edinburgh area for the eighteenth century.
