Scope and Content South-west façade of Strachur House, Argyll and Bute Strachur House, a provincial Classical house, was built by General John Campbell to replace an earlier residence at Succothmore, and was at first known as Strachur Park. It appears to date from the 1780s and was first assessed for window tax in 1785. The five-bayed principal, or south-west, façade is a central block with flanking wings. The central bay is advanced and has a pediment with a moulded surround. The curved entrance on the ground floor dates to the 20th century. The first floor of the central bay is treated as a piano nobile, or main floor and has tall windows in a Palladian style. The windows of the central bay, both on the first and second floor, have moulded bases, capitals and cornices. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
