Galloway House

Adjoining the estate village of Garlieston, on Wigtown Bay, the house was begun in 1740 for Lord Garlies, later sixth Earl of Galloway, to designs by John Douglas, assisted by John Baxter as site architect.

She died in 1940, when the house became a hospital for men injured during the Second World War.

Lady Forteviot's step-grandson, Edward Strutt, added to the garden, but in 1947 the house was sold to Glasgow Corporation, and until 1976 was a boarding school.

After that it was sold back into private ownership, firstly to an American, and then an Australian.
