House Move?

No, not me! Many years ago we were looking for a new house in Edinburgh. We arrived at this house and were astounded. It was vast. We were not in this league and still aren't. We didn't want a house this big. However, we went up and a very kind owner took us round. The house was beautiful. We learned that it had been built in 1858 and in 1899 had been moved about a mile. They had had it completely dismantled and then rebuilt because they did not like the new developments near where they were situated. Well you do, don't you? Why were we there? We were looking for number 72 and ended up at 27.
