Langgarth House was ravaged by a blaze at the end of March - with plans for a new future at the site.
Langgarth House, extensively damaged by fire earlier this year, looks set to be strengthened before eventually undergoing restoration.
However, since 2012 it has been included in the Buildings at Risk Register for Scotland, which highlights properties of architectural or historic merit throughout the country considered at risk or under threat. This is said to include removal of loose and dangerous materials, loose debris, remaining fire-damaged structural roofing elements, all asbestos, any remaining deafening pugging board material and all remaining soft furnishing; salvaging and secure retention of architecturally significant components; stripping of saturated fire damaged ceiling linings; cutting penetrations through ground floor window boarding; and temporary propping and downtakings .
“On conclusion of this work a controlled environment will be provided to allow safe access for further detailed surveys and inspections by the design team. Thereafter, potential temporary propping or further temporary down takings may be required to secure the building shell. This work, once defined, will be carried out as part of the enabling phase works.
