An unusual historic house built by a water board and requisitioned during both world wars is on the market for £1.5m.<br />
<br />
The water board built Pinewood Manor as they were planning to flood the Burn Valley and needed somewhere for surveyors to stay.<br />
<br />
But they were left red-faced and the plan was scuppered when a geological survey uncovered sand and the reservoir was built elsewhere.
