It is possible that Wilson did two houses in Hermitage Drive, and that 'Inglewood' and number 18 are not the same - the correlation between the sources is unclear as no precise dates are given in either.
DMW indicates that the house was designed for Wilson himself - from the 1907 EAA catalogue. However PO directories suggest it was actually for Mrs Patrick Thomson. | Building Type ClassificationThe building is classified under the following categories: | | Classification | Original classification? | Notes | | Villa | | |
