Agents Note
Given that the property is set amidst two working sheep-farms, it is part of the title deeds agreed with the owner of the other properties, Scottish Water, that any dogs owned by the owner of Waterend Cottage be kept under control within the boundary of this property. It will be the total responsibility of the owner of Waterend Cottage to ensure that its boundary is absolutely secure to the extent that any dog(s) will not be free to roam outside the boundary to disturb and/or harm the livestock of the farm which are allowed to roam and graze freely. The purpose of this point is simply to safeguard any sheep and lambs.
