Château d'Armadale

Le château d'Armadale est un manoir en ruines à Armadale, sur l'île de Skye, dans l'archipel des Hébrides; cet archipel fait partie de la zone administrative écossaise de Highland. Armadale est l'ancien siège des MacDonald de Sleat. Histoire Un manoir est construit à Armadale vers 1790. En 1815, James Gillespie Graham conçoit un château qui est édifié à côté du manoir. Dans une imitation du style architectural dit seigneurial écossais (Scottish baronial style) de la renaissance écossaise, le château est davantage destiné à l'esthétique qu'à la défense. Après 1855, une partie brûlée du manoir est remplacée par une aile centrale selon les plans de David Bryce. Actuellement Depuis 1925, le château a été abandonné par la famille MacDonald et tombe en ruine. En revanche, les jardins autour du château sont entretenus et un musée se trouve sur le site, consacré à l'histoire du Clan Donald et de l'île de Skye.

Castello di Armadale

Il castello di Armadale (in inglese: Armadale Castle) è un castello in rovina del villaggio scozzese di Armadale, nell'isola di Skye, costruito tra il 1790 e la seconda metà del XIX secolo. Antica residenza del Clan Donald, ospita ora il Museo delle Isole. Storia Il clan Donald, si era stabilito a Skye nel XV secolo e a partire dalla metà del XVII secolo i principali esponenti del clan si stabilirono ad Armadale, dove nel 1790 fecero costruire una nuova residenza Nel 1815, il castello venne ampliato e rimodellato in un edificio gotico su progetto dell'architetto James Gillespie Graham. Nel 1855, il castello fu investito da un incendio, che distrusse la sezione centrale, nonché la parte più antica dell'edificio. Tre anni dopo, quest'ala fu ricostruita in stile gotico su progetto dell'architetto David Bryce. Nel 1925, il castello venne abbandonato a causa degli alti costi di mantenimento dai proprietari, che si trasferirono in una residenza più piccola a Sleat. Ciò portò ad un progressivo stato di abbandono del castello, che si protrasse fino al 1971, anno in cui l'edificio e la tenuta circostante furono acquisiti dal Clan Donalds Land Trust. In seguito, a partire dal 1975, una parte del castello di Armadale fu adibita a museo. Architettura Il castello si trova all'interno di una tenuta di 20.000 acri. Il castello è circondato da giardini, gran parte dei quali risalgono al 1790, anno di costruzione dell'edificio originario. I giardini ospitano varie specie di piante, molte delle quali furono piantate negli anni settanta del XIX secolo.

Martnaham Castle

Martnaham Castle ist die Ruine einer Inselburg auf einer ehemaligen Insel in der Mitte des Martnaham Loch an der Grenze zwischen den schottischen Council Areas East Ayrshire und South Ayrshire, etwa 5 km entfernt von Ayr und 2 km entfernt von Coylton. Einst gehörten die umgebenden Ländereien den Campbells of Loudoun, später den Kennedys of Cassillis. Die Ruine ist als Scheduled Monument geschützt. Geschichte Die Ruinen der alten Burg auf der Insel, die als „Martnam Ynch“ (sic) verzeichnet sind, in der Nähe der Mitte des Sees sind heute noch sichtbar; der Zugang führt vom Südufer aus über einen Steindamm vom Festland zur Insel. Es ist nicht bekannt, wann die Burg errichtet wurde. Sie war bis ins 16. Jahrhundert bewohnt. Die Überreste stammen von einem großen Gebäude mit einer Grundfläche von etwa 21 × 7,5 Metern; die Fundamente eines Anbaus, etwa 12 × 5 Meter groß, sind nordöstlich davon sichtbar. Der Hauptblock war in drei Räume unterteilt, die Mauern bestehen aus vermörteltem Bruchstein, 0,8 Meter dick und bis zu einer Höhe von maximal 2 Metern erhalten. Die architektonische Ausbildung des Bauwerks lässt eine Bauzeit im 16. oder 17. Jahrhundert annehmen. Ein möglicherweise rechteckiges Gebäude am Eingang zum Steindamm war vermutlich ein früheres Torhaus. Das Gelände war viele Jahre lang dicht bewaldet. Martnaham Castle war vermutlich Teil einer Kette von Festungen, die eine Verteidigungslinie bildeten; dazu gehörten auch Drongan Castle und Auchencloigh Castle. Love sieht die Burg als ursprünglichen Sitz von Old King Cole und verbindet sie somit mit dem nahegelegenen Loch Fergus, der nach King Coles Gegenspieler und Bezwinger benannt ist. Um 1661 verfasste John Bonar, ein Schulmeister aus Ayr, eine poetische Beschreibung der örtlichen Sage um King Cole: Die Burg war das Caput des alten Baronats Martnaham. Das Gelände soll in den 1650er Jahren belagert worden sein. Groome bezeichnet Martnaham Castle als „efeuumrankte Ruinen eines alten Landhauses“. 1612 schrieb John Monipennie „der Loch of Matuane mit einem starken Turm“. Paterson beschrieb in den 1860er Jahren einige interessante Details der Ruine: Crannóg Insel und Damm von Martnaham Castle gleichen einem Crannóg, der an seichtes Wasser angepasst wurde, wie man ihn auch in anderen Seen in Ayrshire findet, zum Beispiel Lochspouts Loch, Buiston Loch, Lochlea, Loch Brand oder Kilbirnie Loch.

Martyrs’ Public School

Die Martyrs’ Public School ist eine ehemalige Schule in der schottischen Stadt Glasgow. 1970 wurde das Bauwerk in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen. Geschichte Die Schule wurde 1895 durch das Glasgower Schulamt in Auftrag gegeben. Ihr Name ist zurückzuführen auf die Covenanter James Lawson, James Nisbet und Alexander Wood, die 1684 in der Nähe hingerichtet wurden. Den Entwurf lieferte das schottische Architekturbüro Honeyman & Keppie. Charles Rennie Mackintosh, der zu dieser Zeit dort tätig war, war möglicherweise federführend in die Planung eingebunden. Es könnte sich somit um eines der frühen Projekte in der Karriere Mackintoshs handeln. Die Gesamtkosten des 1898 abgeschlossenen Baus beliefen sich auf 14.500 £. 1959 wurde die Schule an das Stow College angeschlossen. Zwischen 1961 und 1973 war die Schule dann Teil der St Mungo’s Academy. In den 1970er Jahren endete der Schulbetrieb. Der Forum Arts Trust, und später Glasgow Museums, übernahm das Gebäude und öffnete es für eine kurze Zeit als Museum. Beschreibung Die Martyrs’ Public School steht an der Parson Street nordöstlich des Glasgower Stadtzentrums. Ihr Mauerwerk besteht aus rotem Stein aus dem Ballochmyle-Steinbruch. Wie von den Schulbehörden zu dieser Zeit vorgeschrieben, verfügt der kompakte Jugendstilbau über geschlechtergetrennte Eingänge. Die Fenster sind teils gekuppelt und mit steinernen Fensterpfosten ausgestattet. Schlichte Gurtgesimse gliedern die Fassaden horizontal. Das abschließende Dach ist mit grauem Schiefer eingedeckt.

Martyrs' Public School

The Martyrs' Public School, in Parson Street in the Townhead area of Glasgow, Scotland, is one of the earlier works of architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Until recently, an arts centre run by Glasgow Museums, it is now home to Glasgow City Council's Social Work Leaving Care Services. It is protected as a category A listed building. Stranded above the main road it was once set in the middle of a densely populated area of tenement buildings. It was built following the Education (Scotland) Act 1872 which provided for increased public expenditure on education. Commissioned by the School Board of Glasgow and built between 1895 and 1898, the architects were Honeyman and Keppie. At the time, Charles Rennie Mackintosh was a senior assistant in the practice and his influence can be seen in the building, especially in the details. It was built largely of red sandstone, as were many of Glasgow's public buildings of this period, and has many hints of Scotland's architectural heritage. Inside there is a light central open space, used for access and for school assemblies. Above this two galleries run around the building, giving access to classrooms. Another classroom block spread to the north. There are Art Nouveau details round the doorways, which indicate separate entrances for Boys, Girls and Infants, as was the custom of the time. The ironwork is often fine, as is the woodwork. The external massing and windows have attracted varying comment. The building served for many years as the non-denominational public school for Townhead. After the Second World War, following another Education Act, it became the Martyrs' Primary School. In 1959 it was briefly a part of Stow College, but in 1961 became an annex to St Mungo's Academy and remained so until 1973. It was an Arts Centre for a time, run by the Forum Arts Trust.

Ballochmyle House

Ballochmyle House is an 18th-century country house near Catrine in East Ayrshire, Scotland that was the seat of the Alexander of Ballochmyle family. From 1939 to 2000, it was the location of Ballochmyle Hospital operated by NHS Ayrshire and Arran. Following a £5m restoration that began in 2009, it was converted to luxury flats. History Ballochmyle House was designed by Robert Adam and completed in 1760 before being substantially rebuilt to a design by Hew Montgomerie Wardrop with assistance from George Mackie Watson in 1887. It was the home of Wilhelmina Alexander whose lasting fame derives from being Robert Burns's 'The Bonnie Lass o'Ballochmyle' in the song of that title. In 1939, Ballochmyle Hospital was established as one of seven Emergency Hospital Service facilities for military casualties when Ballochmyle House was requisitioned from Sir Claud Alexander. The wooden huts which had been erected during the war continued to be used for civilian purposes after the war. After services transferred to East Ayrshire Community Hospital, Ballochmyle Hospital closed in 2000. The house has since been converted into luxury apartments and the site redeveloped for residential use.

McEwan Hall

Le McEwan Hall (en gaélique écossais : Talla MhicEòghainn) est la salle de remise des diplômes de l'Université d'Édimbourg, à Édimbourg, la capitale de l'Écosse. Elle a été présentée à l'Université en 1897 par William McEwan, brasseur et homme politique, au prix de 115 000 £. Sir Robert Rowand Anderson en est l'architecte. Le McEwan Hall est un bâtiment classé de catégorie A . Histoire et description La conception a été commencée en 1876 et a été en grande partie entreprise par George Mackie Watson alors qu'il travaillait dans les bureaux de Robert Rowand Anderson (le plan directeur étant de Rowand Anderson lui-même). Il a été construit en utilisant la pierre de Prudham Quarry, Hexham dans le Northumberland . L'extérieur de la salle en forme de D a été achevé en 1894. L'intérieur, terminé en 1897, est construit dans le style de la Renaissance italienne et présente des décorations murales de la main de William Mainwaring Palin . L'œuvre d'art centrale est une grande œuvre peinte connue sous le nom de «Temple de la renommée» représentant un grand nombre de philosophes et d'étudiants. L'orgue McEwan Hall a été construit en 1897 par Robert Hope-Jones, et a été reconstruit et modifié à plusieurs reprises par la suite . Une autre caractéristique du McEwan Hall est son grand dôme. À l'intérieur du dôme se trouve une inscription biblique: la sagesse est la chose principale, donc obtenez la sagesse, et avec tout ce que vous obtenez, obtenez la compréhension. Exaltez-la et elle vous honorera. (Proverbes 4: 7). En 2015, le hall et Bristo Square ont été fermés pour rénovation et rouverts à temps pour les remises de diplômes de juillet 2017 (coût prévu de 35 millions de livres sterling). Le nouveau chauffage, la ventilation et l'éclairage ont été intégrés à l'intérieur d'origine et de nouvelles salles de séminaire créées au sous-sol et au-dessous de Bristo Square. L'un des principaux objectifs du projet était de fournir un accès facile à toutes les zones, y compris la galerie du deuxième étage. Le McEwan Hall est utilisé pour des remises de diplômes, des conférences et des meetings publics, certains événements du Festival Fringe d'Édimbourg et des récitals d'orgue.
