Phantassie is an agricultural hamlet near East Linton, East Lothian, Scotland. It is close to the River Tyne, Preston Mill, and Prestonkirk Parish Church. The Phantassie Farm and Workshop, presently owned by Hamilton Farmers, is the birthplace and childhood home of the civil engineer John Rennie the Elder (1761-1821), and his brother George Rennie (1749-1828). John Rennie is commemorated at Phantassie by balusters taken from Waterloo Bridge in London, which he designed.〔 The estate was formerly the property of the Countess of Aberdeen, until purchased by the Rennie family in the 18th century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Phantassie House Listed Building Report )〕 The 18th century main house is a category A listed building, while the farmstead is category B listed.〔 ==Phantassie Doocot== Phantassie Doocot is a "beehive" doocot, or dovecote, and is a National Trust for Scotland property, along with the nearby Preston Mill. It was built in the 16th century, and has an unusual parapet in the shape of a horseshoe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Phantassie Doocot Listed Building Report )〕 Behind the thick walls, there are 544 nestboxes which, in years gone by, would have given good shelter to the birds.
