Phantassie (Scottish Gaelic: Fàn taise) (in English "damp gentle slope") is an agricultural hamlet near East Linton, East Lothian, Scotland. It is close to the River Tyne, Preston Mill, and Prestonkirk Parish Church.
The 704-acre (285 ha) Phantassie Farm and Workshop, presently owned by Hamilton Farmers, is the birthplace and childhood home of the civil engineer John Rennie the Elder (1761–1821), and his brother George Rennie (1749–1828). John Rennie is commemorated at Phantassie by balusters taken from Waterloo Bridge in London, which he designed.[1] The estate was formerly the property of the Countess of Aberdeen, until purchased by the Rennie family in the 18th century.[1] The 18th century main house is a category A listed building, while the farmstead is category B listed.[1][2]
