Date(s): May 1999
Creator(s): Walton, Milburn
Scope & Content: Dissertation submitted for BSc (Hons) in Architectural Technology and Innovation at the University of Derby (School of Engineering, Division of Construction) in which the author identifies the architectural philosophy of Baillie Scott and notes the significance of Baillie Scott's connection with the Isle of Man. Two of his houses on the Isle of Man are examined internally and externally in relation to his philosophy (Ivydene and Falcon Cliff Terrace Houses) while the work of two of his contemporaries, Armitage Rigby and Robert F Douglas, is also analysed to discover elements of his philosophy they began to imitate. Reasons for Baillie Scott's departure from the island in 1901 after a twelve year stay are posited. Contains colour photographs of properties and other illustrations.
