Newbridge farmhouse newbridge village terregles

[stoop]

I wonder if there is a local historian who might have knowledge of newbridge farmhouse near newbridge village terregles there is hopefully a photograph somewhere before it was demolished. I have been searching for some years here's hoping ,STOOP.

Where have you searched so far?

I would have started with Dumfries and Galloway Archives http://archives.dumgal.gov.uk/calmview/

Thanks forfarian unfortunately  there were not any leads ,thank you STOOP.

I wonder if there might be a heritage group of some sort - maybe on some social media, like Facebook?

Do you know when it was demolished, and who owned it?

I will certainly follow up regarding your suggestions, thank you again STOOP.

Is this the same farm (site) as the existing Newbridge farm just off the A76 and across the road from Lochside Industrial Estates? If so there does seem to be an older house at the western corner of the site. It’s hidden by a hedge on street view, but the chimney stack looks old. When was the building that interests you demolished?

Added: looking at the layout of this farm on the 1900 6 inch OS map there isn’t an obvious candidate for the building I describe above, but the road alignment looks a little different too, so it isn’t clear how easy it is to compare.

Hi Alan this a very hopeful bit of information, I have within the last hour left hospital where I have had to spend a day when I have recovered  I will study your observations ,thank you STOOP.

This side by side map view compares the old layout of farm and road with the current satellite view:

The straightening of the road is clear, and there is a trace of the old road just to the east of the A76 on the satellite image. That would place the house in the western corner of the modern site right on the old road-side, but clearly none of the buildings shown on the OS map match that position, so I think that my "house behind the hedge" may be later.
