A mains (Scottish Gaelic: mànas) in Scotland is a farm, or the buildings of a farm. This may include the farmhouse, farm buildings such as a byre, dairy, and workers' cottages. It is pseudo-plural, actually being a Lowland Scots corruption of domains or demesne, and so is never used in the form "main" (except occasionally in the tautological "main farm", although this usage is not traditional).
