The Duchess had been influenced by Uvedale Price’s Essay on the Picturesque. Price had advocated an appreciation of the particulates of planting and farming, combined with local circumstances. With this inspiration the Duchess created an outstanding and unique example of late 18th

It has been noted that Kinrara makes a significant contribution to the scenic qualities and nature conservation values in Strathspey. The architectural features that fall within the area consist of Kinrara House. The large estate house was designed by John Smith and constructed in 1804. Farm buildings, kennels and a keeper’s cottage are situated to the north of the house. To the south-west of the house is a large memorial to the Duchess. The garden surrounding the house has largely been laid to lawn. Two herbaceous borders are situated to the south-west side of the house. The ‘Dell’ is located to the west and consists of an area formed by the excavation of earth forming a podium in which the House stands. This area was once the site of a shrubbery that had been laid out by the Duchess. None of the original planting survives.

The garden is elliptical in shape and is fenced off by a wooden palisade fence. The garden is no longer in use but several fruit trees remain on the grounds. Two access roads break of from the B9152, crossing the Edinburgh to Inverness line, before leading to the asset. During the mid-19th century there was an elaborate network of tracks and footpaths. Some of these paths can still be followed but, many have now been lost due to unused and overgrown vegetation. As a prime example of a mid- 18th century formal landscape, and in recognition of its inclusion on the Inventory of Gardens and Design Landscapes, Kinrara Garden and Designed Landscape has been assessed to be of high value. 2 HES number GDL00139 NGR 289281 Garden and Designated (GDL) Doune of Doune of Rothiemurchus is a 17th century High 809023 Designed Rothiemurchus picturesque designed landscape Landscape of outstanding historical value forms the main ornamental landscape character along this stretch of Strathspey.
