The Hill House

Description

In 1904 this building was made for the publisher Walter Blackie by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh.
The entire house, inside and out, was designed by Mackintosh including furniture and fittings. He even recommended what sort of decorations the residents should use, such as flowers.
The building has some structural issues and a large rejuvenation project is being undertaken (2019) in order to increase its longevity.
The tour consists of a set of 360ยบ images of the interior of the house with information points on various items.
Accessibility note: There is accessible parking, wheelchair access, a hearing loop, and braille notices.
