The pavilion stands in the south-west corner of the Linzee Gordon Park. The park was gifted by Lady Cathcart. Lady Cathcart, née Emily Pringle, was first married to Colonel John Gordon of Cluny, and after his death to Sir Reginald Cathcart. When Lady Cathcart died in 1932, the estates passed to Colonel Gordon's cousin Charles Arthur Linzee, who adopted the name Gordon in accordance with a stipulation in the Colonel's will, becoming Charles Arthur Linzee Gordon. Curiously, the name Linzee does not occur in any surviving and readily available Scottish birth, baptism, banns, marriage or death record until 1936, but it occurs in England from at least 1838 onwards.
