Valleyfield Farm House is not on the plan I have of the Barcaple Estate dated 1867, when it was sold by David Maitland to is brother Edward Francis at that time. It is presumably part of what was called "Valleyfield or Nether Barcaple" which lies to the South of Barcaple and was retained by David Maitland

There is a section in Kirkyards.co.uk headed Tongland which has a lot about Barcaple estate up to the time of Walter Neilson. The link is: http://www.kirkyards.co.uk/tongland/lands.asp. It is currently a Christian outdoor centre - see www.abernethy.org.uk/barcaple/

I would still be interested in your Maitland connections

all best wishes

Barcaple was in the maitland family until 1872. I would be happy to provide some history before this date if it of interest.

I have just picked up your post re Barcaple & would be interersted to know who your Maitland ancestors were, since I am descended from edward Francis Maitland who owned Barcaple until he died in 1870. The esate was sold in 1872
