Fowberry Tower. Photo by Harry Rowland, 1968.

Fowberry Tower was originally a fortified tower house, built as a defence against raids by reivers. It was first mentioned in the early 16th century. In the 18th century the building was completely rebuilt. In 1776 the house became the property of the Blake family who decided to enlarge it, and it was doubled in size. The building is rectangular in shape with two small wings on each side. The front of the building has been built in the Gothic style. It is a Grade II* listed building protected by law.
