Old photograph of Glenmuick House near Ballater, Royal Deeside, Scotland. This is a good example of a little altered estate house in the Tudor style which retains its associated walled garden, a vital element in the provision of fresh produce for a 19th century estate. It has a good interior, incorporating Gothic, Tudor and Classical design elements. The house, walled garden and terraced landscaping were conceived as one overall design by the partnership of architect Daniel Gibson and landscape architect Thomas Hayton Mawson. Gibson also designed the 1912 service extension. The earlier Glenmuick House built by Sir Samuel Morton Peto in 1870 was demolished in 1947. Brackley House, the then dower house became Glenmuick House.
