The hamlet of West fenton" target="_blank">fenton" target="_blank">fenton" target="_blank">Fenton lies approximately one mile south of Gullane. The small community is made up of a large farmhouse, adjoining converted steading, a number of semi-detached cottages (originally for farm workers), a modern farm buildings complex, and an expansive livery yard. The redevelopment retained the farm's tall chimney stack which vented the boiler fire for the steam-engine. This provided power for a grain thresher and other machinery.
Also in the vicinity is a paintball course and dog agility training area.
The farm itself is made up of some 523 acres (2.12 km2).
