Scotswood House

Scotswood House was the principal house of Scotswood in the early 19th century, owned by the Ord family and occupied by the tenant of the paper mill next to the railway bridge. The house is shown on Ordnance Survey maps of 1841, 1858 and 1896. The latter map also shows the gardens. Scotswood House was described as "on an eminence adorned with a neat garden and occupied by Mr Nathaniel Grace the tenant of Scotswood Paper Mill.”
