Description

Dargavel House is a former mansion that has been adapted as offices. It is a two and three-storey building with a dormered attic, featuring harled walls and stone dressings. The house has bold circular towers at the northeast and southwest external angles. Originally built in 1584, it underwent extensive additions around 1840 by the architect David Bryce. The building was further remodelled in 1910 by architect Peter MacGregor Chalmers.
