Garden House, Glamis Castle

Garden House at Glamis Castle is a single-storey and attic estate house designed in the style of William Burn and David Bryce in the mid-19th century. The building features squared rubble construction with dressed ashlar margins. It has a basket-arched, moulded doorway, corbels, a bracketed dripstone canopy, chamfered arrises, and stone mullions.

On the southeast elevation, the central bay has an advanced gable with a canted, four-light window at ground level. Above this, a corbel course leads to the attic floor, which contains a bipartite window and a pendant finial in the gablehead, flanked by ridge stacks. To the left of the center, there is a recessed bay with a gabled porch, a boarded timber door beneath a blind panel, and a pendant finial in the gablehead. The right side features a blank recessed bay with eaves that overhang on a timber brace.

The southwest elevation has a recessed bay in the center with a window at ground level and a small window breaking the eaves into a catslide roof above. To the right of the center is a broad gabled bay with two windows at ground level and another window in the gablehead. The left bay has a canted four-light window at ground level, with a corbel over the outer lights leading to moulded panels flanking a bipartite window in the gablehead. Both gables are finialled similarly.

The southeast elevation features a slightly advanced gable to the left of center with a ground floor window beneath a dripstone and another window in the gablehead, while a lower bay to the right contains two windows.

The windows are timber sash and case with 4- and 8-pane glazing patterns. The roof is covered with graded grey slates, and the building has ashlar grouped stacks with some cans and battered coping.
