Paul Waterhouse of Alfred Waterhouse designed Craigtoun Park for his father-in-law James Younger. The rainwater heads are dated 1903. The panelled entrance hall, the principal corridor and magnificent arcaded staircase with marble work by Farmer and Brindley all survive. Although the double drawing room has been sub-divided all of the elaborate plasterwork and the connecting doors survive intact. The first floor conservatory leading off the south drawing room remains unaltered. The other principal reception rooms have all been altered but many details survive such as light wells, tile work and fireplaces. The billiard room on the lower floor retains all its fittings and although the service rooms have been altered the original layout survives along with some tiling and fitted cupboards.
