Lawrence Weaver (1876-1930) has been described as ‘the first architectural critic in the modern sense of the word’. Between 1905 and 1917 he published 42 articles about Scottish architecture in Country Life – describing 18 castles and palaces, and ten buildings designed or restored by Robert Lorimer. The professional partnership and close friendship between the two men benefited both, introducing Weaver to the romance of Scottish architecture and making Lorimer’s work widely known.
