The Victorian Derry Lodge built around 1859 lies to the north west of the “Linn of Dee” in "Glen Lui" near Braemar Scotland, and is in the Cairngorm National Park. It was used by the late Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as a Hunting Lodge where guests could spend overnight stays with them whilst on shooting parties in the local Glens. It has been unused for a number of years and in badly need of repair. There is an excellent walk to the Lodge, which can be extended over the 19mile long “Lairig Ghru” mountain pass to Coylumbridge in Aviemore. This photo only shows an east view of the Lodge which is quite an extensive building in itself.
Thanks to all Phoide contributors to Derry Lodge!
Most notably The Jacobite.
