The accompanying descriptive text in the volume begins as follows:
'This mansion, the residence of Sir John Don Wauchope, Bart., is situated in the parish of Newton, about three miles from Edinburgh. It is a large and spacious house, and although its exterior has no pretensions to architectural beauty, it is in its internal arrangements very elegant and commodious. The building presents a modern appearance, but part of it is very ancient, and known to be at least four hundred years old.'
The full text may be viewed from the volume which is held at the Edinburgh and Scottish Collection, Central Library, Edinburgh.
Edmonstone was demolished in the 1950's.
