Summary:

Scotland lost more than 450 houses of "architectural pretension" between 1900 and 1980. This study is an attempt to document the losses of Scottish Country Houses by showing how much has been lost, especially since WWII, with the aim of underlining the importance of the efforts being made to preserve, maintain, and use those that remain.
