Reference number: T017-03-66FF
The Hill House, Helensburgh, Strathclyde, Scotland. Is regarded as one of Charles Rennie Mackintosh's most famous works second only to Glasgow School of Art. Designed and built for the publisher Walter Blackie from 1902 to 1904. Mackintosh also designed most of the interior rooms, furniture and other fixings.
