Scope and Content Garron Lodge, Garron Bridge, Inveraray estate, Argyll and Bute John, 5th Duke of Argyll (1723-1806), inherited Inveraray in 1770, and was responsible for much building on the policies and continuing the work of the 3rd Duke. The architect Robert Mylne (1733-1814) did a lot of work for the 5th Duke. This porter's lodge at Garron Bridge was designed by Mylne and built in 1783-4, although Mylne's plan was not fully executed. The north end of the central two-storeyed main block, seen here, forms an apsidal or semicircular projection. The division of the main block and apse is marked by the chimney. The stair between the ground and first floor is situated within the apse. There is also a stair to storage space in the basement of the apse. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
