A fact from Formakin House appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 November 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Miller's Tower at Formakin House is dated "1694 DL", with DL standing for "damned lie", as it was built in the 1900s?

Category A Listed

Hi. I don't believe this building to be a category A listed building. I believe it is the nearby Mansion House called Formakin House that has the Grade A listing. Maybe in time I will check it out. Am sure that the only Grade a's within the general area are Mar Hall, Mansion House (this one, but not the house in the article) and India Tyres. --Discolover18 (talk) 14:58, 23 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Formakin House is the A listed building. Maybe in time I will edit it. For the time being here is a link to Renfrewshire Council page detailing what the correct categories are.

Name of Article

The article could also really be doing with getting re-named. This building isn't Formakin House. This building is the gate house on one side and the millers house (aka, Main Entrance Gateway and Lodge) on the other side. The grade A listed building Formakin House isn't this one. Here is my supporting link.[2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Discolover18 (talk • contribs)
