Description
Drumkilbo Gardens is a two-storey building with a basement, featuring a harled exterior and a high slated hipped roof. The entrance has a pedimented doorway that is dated 1811. The building underwent extensive alterations and additions in 1920, designed by architect Sir Robert Lorimer. Further modifications included the addition of a wing in 1963, which added a third storey. Smaller windows were enlarged to create a dining room, and bedrooms were incorporated into the new wing.
