Pavilion

This is a two-storey pavilion, designed by Daniel Gibson in 1898. It was built as an estate house for the Glenmuick Estate, situated on a hillside with views north over Glen Gairn. The building is constructed from tooled, squared, and coursed granite, with red sandstone ashlar dressings around the windows and doorways.

The architectural style is Tudor, with a deliberately irregular plan and various later additions. The principal entrance is on the eight-bay east elevation, featuring a semi-circular arched doorway with a stepped hoodmoulding within a broad, advanced bay that has a castellated parapet. To the far left is an advanced tower with a small central window, curved corners at ground floor, corbelling to a square cap house with a pyramidal roof. The north elevation has three bays, with a broad, single-storey castellated bay to the left and a two-storey, broad canted bay window to the right. A prominent, shouldered stack stands above the castellated bay. On the west elevation, a five-bay projecting wing has a broad, canted bay window with a balustrade to the north, and a broad, eaves-breaking, two-storey canted bay window with a parapet to the west. The south (rear) elevation incorporates single-storey service accommodation added in 1912, alongside a circular corner tower with a conical roof at the south-east corner.

Large, prominent red sandstone mullion and transom windows are a key feature. Windows throughout are rectangular fixed, casement, leaded, or timber sash and case windows, with two and four panes. The roofs are grey slated, with piended and mansard sections, lead ridges and flashing. Granite ridge and wallhead stacks have red sandstone linked flues and clay cans. Cast-iron rhones and rhones pipes are fitted with decorative hoppers.

The interior features an extensive and complex floor plan and combines Tudor and Gothic decorative schemes. Ground floor reception rooms have ornate plasterwork, timber panelling to dado height, and marble, timber, and sandstone classical and Gothic fireplaces. Timber doors are of 9, 6, and 4-panel design. An inglenook fireplace is located in the entrance hall, and the open-well staircase has decorative balusters and newels.

Nearby, a walled garden was created in 1898 by Daniel Gibson and T.H. Mawson. A large rectangular walled garden lies to the east of Glenmuick House. A gateway is set into the north wall, featuring a cut-out semi-circular opening, ornate wrought-iron gates, and railings. In the north-east corner, a square pavilion with a pyramidal, bellcast roof, overhanging eaves, and a canted bay window to the north elevation (with a glazed doorway) is built of tooled, squared, and coursed granite. The interior is timber lined. The garden and pavilion walls are of granite with a graded grey slate roof to the pavilion.
