Orchardton House, 18th-century mansion in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland
Orchardton House stands near Orchardton Bay, an inlet of the Solway Firth where the Orchardton Burn meets the sea.
The mansion, constructed in 1761, underwent a major expansion in 1881 under the direction of William Robertson-Douglas, reflecting Victorian architectural preferences.
