Architect: John Honeyman 1868 (Museum)
Honeyman, Keppie & Mackintosh 1902
Note (22 June 2017)
A photographic survey of the Museum and Laibrary was carried out for the Listed Buildings Recording Programme in 2017. Since the preliminary survey visit in 2016 the original oak bookcases on the ground floor of the Library had been removed.
