About this location
What better way to glimpse a moment in history than to enjoy a tour of Craigmoor? This lovingly preserved home, is the grandest historic residence in Hill End. The two-storey timber house boasts embellished timberwork and other impressive Gothic features, taking the Duke of Elgin’s hunting lodge in Scotland as its design cue. Original owner James Marshall must have been truly taken with Hill End as he decided to build Craigmoor in 1875 – well after the town had passed its heyday.
Inside, look out for the four bonnets hanging on the wall; they belonged to the Marshall sisters who’ve left a rich legacy for you to enjoy. The sisters loved fashion and cooking, and you can still see the paintings, pottery, magazines and books they left behind, along with furnishings from the late 1800s and early 1900s.
