Scope and Content Kildonan House, Barrhill, Ayrshire, from the south-east Kildonan House, Barrhill, was built in 1914-23 in the English Manorial Revival style by James Miller for Captain Euan Wallace, MP. This picture of the east front of the house was taken in c.1927 by the architectural photographer, Harry Bedford Lemere. The east front, a three-storeyed block with a neat arrangement of Tudor-style, mullioned windows, overlooks a courtyard with a sweeping driveway. A picturesque low range, with tall chimneys and tiers of dormer windows, lies to the north. Kildonan, a huge house built on a grand scale, was put up for sale in 1930 when Captain Wallace purchased Lavington Park in Sussex. It became a hospital during World War II, and later a convent boarding school run by the Sisters of St Joseph of Cluny. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
