Kirknewton House, Georgian residence in Kirknewton, Scotland
Kirknewton House exhibits neoclassical architecture with symmetrical shapes and decorative columns, reflecting the architectural preferences of its construction period.
Originally named Meadowbank House in the 17th century, the current structure was redesigned by architect William Playfair for Alexander Maconochie in 1835.
The property contributes to West Lothian's architectural heritage as a Category B listed building, representing the design standards of Scottish country houses.
Located between the A71 Edinburgh-Livingston road and the A70 near the Pentland Hills, the house remains accessible through the B7031 connecting route.
The surrounding kirkyard contains a burial enclosure for the Campbell Maconachies of Meadowbank House, dating back to 1662.
