Huntly Family Centre, 4 Deveron Road, Huntly, Aberdeenshire

The Huntly Family Centre, located at 4 Deveron Road in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, is a former drill hall designed by George Sutherland between 1901 and 1902 in a Free Renaissance style. The main northeast elevation features a prominent two-storey gable with a three-stage square tower on the left, a single bay to the right of the gable, and a single-storey porch on the far right. The building is constructed from tooled, squared, and coursed grey Avochie granite, accented with long and short pink Auchindoir ashlar dressings. It has a battered base course and a string course between the ground and first floor, while the rear elevation is rendered. Both the tower and the porch have crenelated parapets, and the tower is topped with a dentilled cornice.

The advanced gable showcases bipartite ground floor windows and round-arched, keystoned first floor windows. A plaque inscribed with 'A Company 4th VBGH' is located in the gable head, set beneath a decorative hoodmould featuring a thistle motif, with an ogee-shaped stone at the top. The first floor window in the single bay to the right of the gable extends above the eaves and includes a gabletted dormer with a small carved shield in the dormer head. The porch has a wide segmentally-arched opening, while the southeast wall of the drill hall features shallow arched window openings.

The windows have been replaced and are mainly multipane sashes over a single pane. The rainwater goods are primarily metal with decorative hoppers. The roofs are pitched and covered with grey slates, except for the roof of the right section, including the porch, which has corrugated sheeting. The building has straight skews and coped wallhead chimney stacks with cylindrical cans.

The interior, as seen in 2016, has been extensively refurbished and divided into offices and training rooms. The iron roof trusses of the hall remain visible in the attic rooms.
