Rivendell was built in 1924 as a private residence for a member of the Penman family who prospered locally as early exponents of the motor TRADE.
The design was carried out by one of six students who studied directly under Charles Rennie Mackintosh at Glasgow School of Art and his influence is still obvious throughout with stained glass tulips and hand beaten brassworks as a recurring feature.
