Statement of Interest

Formerly listed as Glenbuchat House Walled Garden. Situated immediately to the south west of the well preserved 1590 Glenbuchat Castle (see separate listing), much of the finely constructed wall of this garden pre-dates the building of Castle Lodge (originally known as Glenbuchat Cottage) in 1826. With the addition (probably in the early 19th century) of two piend roofed garden buildings and elegant gateway to the west elevation facing Castle Lodge, a fine walled enclosure was created utilising existing much earlier walls and garden area.
