Rosshall Gardens: the old boiler house
Before the later Ross Hall (now Image) was built nearby, there was a building here. It is shown on the first-edition OS map (surveyed in 1858), where it is called Rosshill.
Ross Hall was built for James Cowan (Image) in 1877. It had a glasshouse attached to it, but glasshouses were also built alongside this earlier building, Rosshill.
According to notice boards near the western entrance to Rosshall Park, Rosshill came to be used as a boiler house. The presence of a chimney here is noted on the map revision of c.1934, but not on that of c.1909. As the picture shows, the material of the chimney is quite different from that of the corner of the building on which it stands.

Rosshall Gardens: the old boiler house
This building was Rosshill, a house. In its role as the main house of the estate, it was superseded by Ross Hall (built in 1877 – Image). At some later time, the original building, Rosshill, was made a boiler house; the incongruous castellated chimney is a reminder of that use.
