Duff House, Banff. Built to William Adams design in 1735 for William Braco, 1st. Earl of Fife.submitted by Judith

From Wikipedia the online encyclopedia

The story of Duff House did not get off to a happy start. Disputes over its building reached such an intensity that Duff never lived here. So acrimoniously did this end that it is said that he never even looked at the completed house, having his carriage blinds drawn whenever he passed by.
