PV169 - Howden House, Livingston

*NEW*

We are proud to announce our recent acquisition of this very prestigious building, this is the latest redevelopment opportunity to be added to our already extensive portfolio of successfully completed projects.

A Category B listed Georgian Mansion House, completed in the late eighteenth century.

The estate on which the house stands belonged to the Douglas family of Pumpherston. It was recorded as far back as the 16th century. when it was known as Over Howden. It was built probably for Thomas Farquharson of Howden, and was completed in 1795.In 1834 it passed to Henry Raeburn, son of the Edinburgh portrait painter Sir Henry Raeburn.The daughter of the chemist James Young lived in the house until her death in 1931, when it was sold to Sir Adrian Baillie of Polkemmet, who bought it for his mother, Lady Baillie. Just after midnight on Tuesday 25 June 1940 a bomb fell on the coach house and stables, killing Mrs Maria Fleming and her granddaughter Margaret, aged 10. These were the first civilians to be killed on the Scottish mainland and West Lothian's only deaths by bombing in World War II. Lady Baillie lived at Howden until her death in 1946, when it was bought by the Ministry of Agriculture, who used the estate to test agricultural machinery.

We know the redevelopment will be received by the local community with much interest and who no doubt will welcome back the House to its former glory. When completed it will once again stand pride of place at the heart of and overlooking the new town, which has grown around it in just a short period of its very long history.

Although the redevelopment is still at a very early stage and the 'reuse' of the building has yet to be determined and agreed, Listed Building Consent for alterations to the property and erection of an extension to the rear of it, to form either residential units or a hotel have been granted previously.

The house has been subject to many unfortunate circumstances over recent years, which has resulted in the property falling into an ever accelerating dilapidation. However, we can confirm that works to protect the building from further decay and vandalism have all ready been started and will continue in early 2012.

Once a decision has been made on the redevelopment options, we will publish an update on the position.
