In 1611, the first Earl of Home contracted to buy the Hirsel Estate from Sir John Kerr – although it was not until 1621 that King James VI finally granted the lands of Hirsel to James, the 2 nd Earl of Home. Much of the early tree planting and the existence of the earliest part of Hirsel House appear to have been built by about 1620.
