Description

Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park Planning Authority

This building consists of a 2-storey house now converted to form 2 flats (White House and Breadalbane Cottage) and an adjoining single storey wing which was converted to a Masonic Lodge in the earlier 20th century. Originally dating to circa 1845 the building is composed of white harl and is located at a crossroads in the village. The building retains much of its architectural character and is unusual in that its principal 3-bay frontage does not face the street and its gable end is given this prominence instead. The gabled dormers are typical of the local architectural tradition. Local knowledge suggests that the building may have related to an earlier sawmill formerly located nearby.

The (East) street elevation consists of the Masonic Lodge to the left which has a 3-bay frontage with the window in the central bay larger than the outer bays. Above this central window there is a gable breaking the eaves and an inscribed stone, 'LODGE BREADALBANE ST FILLANS No 815 A.D 1907'. The entrance is to the rear within a monopitch section. To the right is the divided house consisting of 2 bays, 1 gabled bay to the far right and the other bay with a gabled dormer breaking the eaves. The North elevation of the house is 3-bay with corresponding gabled dormers breaking the eaves and a central entrance. The entrance to the upper flat is located to the rear.

The house has a gable stack at its junction with the Lodge and a gable stack to the rear elevation.

INTERIOR

The Lodge's timber-lined interior has recently (2004) been refurbished following discovery of dry rot.

MATERIALS

Predominantly timber sash and case window to the Lodge, 4-pane and 2-pane over 4-pane. The house has non-traditional replacement windows.

Statement of Special Interest

Part of a B-group with Birchbank, Glengarry and Ashlea and Upper Ashlea.

The Earl of Breadalbane gifted the Lodge to the Masons.

Category changed B to C(S), 4 May 2006.

About Listed Buildings

Historic Environment Scotland is responsible for designating sites and places at the national level. These designations are Scheduled monuments, Listed buildings, Inventory of gardens and designed landscapes and Inventory of historic battlefields.

We make recommendations to the Scottish Government about historic marine protected areas, and the Scottish Ministers decide whether to designate.

Listing is the process that identifies, designates and provides statutory protection for buildings of special architectural or historic interest as set out in the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997.

We list buildings which are found to be of special architectural or historic interest using the selection guidance published in Designation Policy and Selection Guidance (2019)

Listed building records provide an indication of the special architectural or historic interest of the listed building which has been identified by its statutory address. The description and additional information provided are supplementary and have no legal weight.

These records are not definitive historical accounts or a complete description of the building(s). If part of a building is not described it does not mean it is not listed. The format of the listed building record has changed over time. Earlier records may be brief and some information will not have been recorded.

The legal part of the listing is the address/name of site which is known as the statutory address. Other than the name or address of a listed building, further details are provided for information purposes only. Historic Environment Scotland does not accept any liability for any loss or damage suffered as a consequence of inaccuracies in the information provided. Addresses and building names may have changed since the date of listing. Even if a number or name is missing from a listing address it will still be listed. Listing covers both the exterior and the interior and any object or structure fixed to the building. Listing also applies to buildings or structures not physically attached but which are part of the curtilage (or land) of the listed building as long as they were erected before 1 July 1948.

While Historic Environment Scotland is responsible for designating listed buildings, the planning authority is responsible for determining what is covered by the listing, including what is listed through curtilage. However, for listed buildings designated or for listings amended from 1 October 2015, legal exclusions to the listing may apply.

If part of a building is not listed, it will say that it is excluded in the statutory address and in the statement of special interest in the listed building record. The statement will use the word 'excluding' and quote the relevant section of the 1997 Act. Some earlier listed building records may use the word 'excluding', but if the Act is not quoted, the record has not been revised to reflect subsequent legislation.

Listed building consent is required for changes to a listed building which affect its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest. The relevant planning authority is the point of contact for applications for listed building consent.
