Taken from Buildings of Pencaitland (1976): “The older cottages remaining in the village are early 19th century and perhaps late 18th century. There has been gradual development since and the East village, with its finely integrated buildings, is an example of the change in building styles during the last 200 years or so. The public park was once known as the Vineyard, a fact possibly connected with the village’s position on a well known smuggling route from the coast.”
