Construction Timeline[edit]

Hello, I have found some information on the construction timeline of the Panmure House. Below is the information that I intend to include in the article.

Thanks --COOKDMATT (talk) 22:00, 1 December 2019 (MT)

The construction of the Panmure House began in 1666. The main house was constructed from 1666 to 1670. The main structure of the building was composed of masonry. The roof, floor, windows and doors were installed by James Baine from 1668 to 1670. The are multiple accounts of the number of windows installed ranging from 67 to 100. The floor that was in the house was a broken jointed system which provided for a better finish than the other methods at this time. The roof structure was a coupled roof with rafters connected by collar beams and planking. The slating of the house took place from 1668 to 1670. Glazing took place from 1669 to 1670. The west gates were constructed of masonry in 1672. The stables were constructed between 1672 and 1675 along with the plastering of the principal rooms. Slating of the stables was done in 1675. Painting of the main house took place from 1671 to 1675. There was then a 10 year gap before the fitting out of the house took place from 1685 to 1686. This portion included washboards, paneling and lining, doors, mouldings, and architraves. [1]
