The house was demolished when the golf course was built - and it opened in 1976. My thanks to members for help finding this location. A Geograph member recalls visiting the caretakers, who had a flat in the top of the house, in the 1950s and says that some of the Burrell Collection was stored on the ground & 1st floors - all in dustsheets with the shutters firmly closed against light.
