Storia

Knock Castle was originally built in 1885 by Glaswegian architect, John Honeyman, for retired Glaswegian merchant William Miller. It was completed at a cost of £4515. Honeyman later joined with John Keppie to form architectural firm Honeyman & Keppie whose work can still be seen in some parts of the castle e.g. windows, fireplaces in hall and lounge etc.

In 1932, David MacBrayne, of the MacBrayne shipping family who owned Caledonian MacBrayne (also known as Cal-Mac), bought the house. In keeping with the history of the building, MacBrayne retained Honeyman & Keppie to add further rooms to the house.

In 1945, Dr Gertrude Brown and Dr J.H.Kellogg, who had made connections with each other previously in America, joined together to run, first nursing home, but ultimately a health centre in the Castle Lodge due to the clean air and pure water which could be used for hydrotherapy. Upon her death in 1974, Dr Brown gifted her health centre to the Seventh Day Adventist Church who was to continue her work under the auspices of the Good Health Association.

The Castle itself continued to stay in the hands of the MacBrayne family as the link passed from David MacBrayne to Lady MacBrayne, who lived in the house until the late 1970s when it was purchased by the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The Church chose to operate both the Castle House and the Lodge together as Roundelwood Health Spa whose existence in the town of Crieff continued until December 2007 when the Spa was purchased by the Henderson Group.
