Scope and Content View of Hafton House from the south, Argyll and Bute Originally, Hafton House was a late 18th-century mansion known as Orchard Park. It was bought around 1816 by James Hunter who had it transformed into a Tudor Gothic mansion by the architect David Hamilton (1768-1843). Other changes were made in the 1840s. On the south façade, the service accommodation of the original 18th-century house survived, but in 1840 was revised and raised to three storeys. A building was added to the right, which was three-storeyed and irregularly-windowed. The new building supports a square tower with a battlemented parapet. By 1830, with his son James, David Hamilton was experimenting with Scots Jacobean style. It is likely James was involved in the changes to Hafton House in 1840. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
