Scope and Content Detail of fireplace in saloon of Ardanaiseig House, Argyll and Bute Ardanaiseig, a mansion formerly known as northew Inverawe, was built for James Archibald Campbell, a descendant of the Campbell family of Inverawe. Ardanaiseig was designed by William Burn (1789-1870) and his original drawings of the house are dated 1833. Externally, Ardanaiseig has remained almost unchanged since it was built. However, internally, the house was remodelled extensively in the early 20th century. The plasterwork and fireplace in the saloon date to this period. William Burn of Edinburgh initiated the Scottish Baronial style for Scottish country houses. His earliest commissions were for Grecian-style public buildings but by 1818 he was designing four country houses per year. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
