This 1930s cricket pavilion on the hilltop northeast of the town centre was gifted to the town by famous son JM Barrie, and is now managed by local volunteers. The camera obscura incorporated into the pointed turret uses a lens to project live images of the surrounding countryside on to a viewing table, and is one of only four in Scotland.
