A Category A listed building, within Queen's Park. constructed circa 1798, for Robert Thomson, a cotton manufacturer. In the late nineteenth century it was acquired by Glasgow Corporation, and for many years operated as Camphill House Museum. It was then used as a store for part of the Burrell Collection, before the purpose-built Burrell Collection building was constructed in Pollok Country Park. It was sold off and converted to flats in 1994, and so is now a residential property again.
