The list description for the house (built c1700), notes that there is some debate as to the dating of the pavilions.
The window tax records from 1748/9 record that Auchindinny House had 60 window. Though the tax rate was 10 shillings, the owner (Mr Inglis) was only charged £2.10.0 rather than £3. A note in the margin in the same hand explains: '...10 of which [windows] in the South Pavilion not yet finished and therefore not charged.'
