House for J.T. Mackenzie and published in The Building News, July 4th 1879. “This illustration is of a house for J. T. Mackenzie, Esq., of Kintail, designed for the picturesque neighbourhood of Loch Dinch, in Ross-shire. The house occupies three sides of a courtyard, in the centre of which is the entrance door. The stables forming one side. Owing to the difficulty of obtaining skilled labour in this remote locality the design is kept studiously plain. A large ballroom at one end of the building is for entertainments to the tenants.”
