This tune is about Arniston House near Temple, Scotland, designed by William Adam and upon his death completed by his son John.
It should not be played quickly; the term 'jig' is misleading.

Key of Arniston House
I think the original key for this may be C minor/dorian. Do people play it in A minor?

I found the "original" in C minor in Jack Campin's very large collection of Scottish tunes at http://www.campin.me.uk/
