This mansion house, set within what is now Tollcross Park, was designed by architect David Bryce, and built by James Dunlop in 1848. From 1905 to 1973, it was the home of the Children's Museum (a branch of the Kelvingrove Museum), but the building later fell into disrepair. For the nearby Winter Gardens, see Image, and other pictures linked from there.
