Hi Marrle

I can't give you any info on an estate near Sorbie but if you key in Sorbie on   old-maps.co.uk then move East to grid ref 245055,547014  there is a Plantation there with Tower Cottage on its south end.

I know it doesn't answer your main question but at least it gives a definite place to start looking.
