The late 19th century historic map for Reddacleave is largely similar to the Tithe Map, although one of the buildings shown on it (north-west of the mansion house) is now gone, or falling into decay.
Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.
The early 20th century historic map shows the mansion to be uninhabited and the remaining farm buildings consist primarily of an L-shaped range at the northern corner of the yard.
