Photographed on the Thursday 28 April 2011.
Poltalloch house is now a derelict ‘Victorian Mansion House’ was also formerly known as Callton Mor and is the Lochgilphead area of Kilmartin in Argyll & Bute, Scotland. Poltalloch was built by William Burn between 1849 and 1853 as a new seat for the Malcom family who had long held the lands of Poltalloch. The house was converted into flats early in the 20th century before being de-roofed in 1957 to save tax. Not far away, surrounding the village of Kilmartin is the world famous Kilmartin Glen with perhaps the most important collection of Neolithic and Bronze Age remains in Scotland and Europe.
