World War One Audit of Surviving Remains (25 June 2013)

The Blair Atholl drill hall, now in use as village hall, is a rubble-built, domestic Jacobean building of two storeys. It has crowstepped gables. At the centre a canopied round-arched door sits under a mullioned and transomed three-light window. A house forms one part of the group. It was designed in 1906-7 by J Macintyre Henry.

In 1914 the hall was the base for "A" Squadron, 1st Scottish Horse and drill station for "G" Company, 6th battalion Black Watch.
