Knockshannoch Lodge is a Category B

false ceilings installed to improve heating efficiency.[1][2]

The building's architect was engineer William Starkey, who later became a soldier and was killed on the Western Front in 1914.[1]

The building was a

outdoor pursuits centre.[1]

Originally part of 17,000 acres (6,900 ha), much of the land was sold to the Forestry Commission.[1]

Old Generator Cottage

A few yards away stands the Old Generator Cottage. Another roundhouse, also Category B listed,[3] this one much smaller and, as of 2021, derelict. It had planning permission in place to be converted into a home for use as a holiday let or guest accommodation.[1]

The properties were put on the market in 2021 with an asking price of £535,000.[1]
