(NT 08856 79016) Hopetoun House, the seat of the Marquis of Linlithgow, was commenced in 1699 and completed by 1703. This work (shown in red on plan) survives in the W facade and in the small rooms of the centre block of the house. In 1721 William Adam was engaged to enlarge the house. Much of the earlier building was removed, the centre block was widened, and the colonnades and pavillions were added.
