Carriden House, Category A listed mansion in Falkirk, Scotland.
The stone mansion spans 14,041 square feet across multiple floors, featuring thick walls made from local sandstone and two vaulted rooms at basement level.
The original tower house dates from 1602, commissioned by John Hamilton of Letterick, with subsequent expansions during the 17th and 19th centuries.
The mansion contains a first-floor study with a 17th-century plaster ceiling and incorporates architectural elements from the Scots Baronial style.
The property sits within 10 hectares of gardens and woodland on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, near the eastern terminus of the Antonine Wall.
A centurion's stone from the Roman period remains embedded within the structure, marking its connection to the ancient fort of Veluniate.
