Help with pre nup - Scotland

I have a bit of a dilemma.
I have recently divorced and wanting to buy a house and put a considerable amount of money as deposit down for the house and take the rest as a mortgage.
My question is what would happen if my new partner moved in with me and signed a pre-nup agreement, would he be able to make a claim on the house even though he signed an agreement should anything go wrong with the relationship. I don't intend to marry.
Any advice would be good thank you.

With apologies for being so pedantic, I don't think you want a pre nup at all. They're for people who do plan to marry, and who want to say how their assets are to be split up in case of divorce. Since you're not planning on marrying, there won't be any nuptials (wedding), and a pre nuptial agreement won't help.
You could discuss a cohabitation agreement, but it's likely you'd need to take legal advice on that at the time.
Is this a hypothetical question for now?0
