The Boathouse at Manderston House, a stately home in the Scottish Borders.
The boathouse was designed by Kinross for Sir James in 1894, before the stables, to celebrate his engagement to Eveline Curzon. On the further bank from the house is the Pheasantry Wood or, as it is now known, the Woodland Garden. This was developed by Major Bailie, Lord Palmer’s grandfather, from 1959 onwards, and contains many rare specimens of rhododendrons and azaleas. Towards the top of the hill are peat beds planted with no less than one hundred and eighty species including hybrid specie dwarf rhododendrons.
