Description

During Doors Open Day, discover Castlemilk�s oldest surviving building. See the magnificent 15-foot high fireplace that once graced the now-demolished Castlemilk House. Learn about the Stuart family and their love of horses on a visit to this beautifully restored former stables block.

Learn about the history of Castlemilk Stables and Castlemilk House and the Stuart family who owned the grand estate. Find out what other buildings were designed by David Hamilton and learn about the famous forester William Gilchrist who created the designed landscape that is now Castlemilk Park. Learn about the more recent transformation of the Stables from a derelict building to a busy social hub that has been a catalyst for change.
