What is recorded here

West Courtyard Wing, Pavilion and North Stable Range stand beside Drumlanrig Castle in Dumfries and Galloway, preserving the shape of a coach house, pavilion and stable. They suggest a busy household where horses waited, people passed, and distance shrank into a single journey. The castle still belongs to memory, but these buildings keep the pace of that older world alive.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Drumlanrig Castle, West Courtyard Wing, Pavilion and North Stable Range as Coach House (period Unassigned), Pavilion (period Unassigned), Stable (period Unassigned).

Drumlanrig Castle, including its West Courtyard Wing, Pavilion, and North Stable Range, was built by the Douglas family, Earls of Queensberry, in the 17th and 18th centuries. The castle and its structures are important as a fine example of Scottish baronial architecture and as the family seat of the Dukes of Queensberry for centuries.
