What is recorded here
Lennox Castle Hospital and the White House stand in East Dunbartonshire as a hospital and residential building, though no exact period or function is recorded. The names suggest a place where care and domestic life became entangled, perhaps under one roof or across a valley. Whether people walked between them as patients, staff or neighbours, the building still carries that dual purpose in its very name.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Lennox Castle Hospital, the White House as Hospital (period Unassigned), Residential Building (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Lennox Castle Hospital, the White House, was originally built as a private residence in the 18th century and later converted into a psychiatric hospital in the early 20th century. It is remembered for its historical role in the development of mental health care in Scotland.
