Historic Galloway estate goes up for sale

A historic estate in the south of Scotland has gone up for sale for offers over £7m.
The Cally Estate near Gatehouse of Fleet stretches across 2,780 acres (1,125 hectares).
At its heart is a seven-bedroom farmhouse "in need of modernisation" along with a number of outbuildings, a second farmhouse and two cottages.
Selling agent Goldcrest Land and Forestry Group (GLFG) said the site had "exciting potential for the future".

The story of the estate dates back to at least the 18th Century when it was inherited by James Murray.
It remained in his family for generations until it came into the hands of Elizabeth Murray Usher in 1924.
At that time the estate was much larger but portions of it have been sold off since then.
She died in 1990 but her family has continued to run it to this day but is now putting it up for sale.
"The Cally Estate offers an extremely rare opportunity," said GLFG partner Jon Lambert.
"Comparable properties are few and far between.
"For those seeking a meaningful investment, a private sanctuary, or a landholding with limitless potential — Cally offers all this and more."
