Kilmory Castle, Lochgilphead
This large 19th century building is also known as Kilmory House, and currently contains the headquarters of Argyll and Bute Council. A house probably stood here from the 14th century, rebuilt and extended over the years. Much of the old building was demolished around 1829, and the remainder incorporated into this building. It was designed by Joseph Gordon Davis for Sir John Orde.

Kilmory Castle
Kilmory Castle is the headquarters of Argyll & Bute Council.
Although Kilmory’s deceptive castellated appearance and air of antiquity have caused it to be popularly referred to as a castle, it is in fact simply a rambling nineteenth century mansion house. Both the house and its extensive grounds were largely created by one man, the highly individual, near eccentric Sir John Powlett Orde of Kilmory and North Uist, over a period of fifty years from 1828 until his death in 1878.
Kilmory House passed out of the Orde family in 1938. Thereafter there were a number of owners. For many years it was a Hostel and Conference Centre of the National Association of Mixed Youth Clubs. Later it reverted to a private hotel, but when it came on the market again in 1974, shortly before the re-organisation of local government in Scotland, it was acquired by Argyll County Council specifically for use as the Headquarters of Argyll and Bute District Council. http://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk
