Introduction
Built as the Dower House for Tayfield.
Commentary
There was a house on this site from at least 1802.
The Fife Herald, 27 Jan 1825, p5 col 4 - refers to Mr Berry's new cottage as being a little west of the starting point of the new access road to the ferry pier. This would give a date of c.1824. There is a building labelled Abercraig on a map of 1837, but it is not the same shape as the current building.
John Gifford The Buildings of Scotland - Fife gives a definite date of 1840. Also, there are records of a load of Kingoodie stone for doors and corners plus Dunkeld slates to be shipped to Newport harbour in 1838/39 for a house in Newport on the Tayfield estate.
I surmise that this is the third house on the site, built 1840, replacing an earlier house built c1824, which in turn replaced an earlier house.
