Summary[edit]

Description
English: Vogrie House In the 1870's, the Perth whisky family, the Dewars, commissioned the Perth architect Andrew Heiton to build a mansion on their estate. The estate was sold in 1924 becoming an outstation for the Edinburgh Mental Hospital. In the 1960's, during the period of the Cold War, it was the Civil Defence HQ for Midlothian and is now the centre for the popular Vogrie Country Park with extensive woodlands, miles of paths and includes a golf course. The Dewar name is however continued in the village of Dewartown nearby.
