Arcadia

Some background from Jim Henderson's book, 'Grampian': "South Milton cottage was built in 1849 by one Duguid and was occupied up until the mid-1940's. The last occupant was known as 'The Painter', one Sandy Robb - who enjoyed indulging his fantasy imagination, molding the columns and the circling band of leaves in cement, and filling his garden with statues and whatever took his fancy." The cottage was abandoned after his death and fell into disrepair.
