Understood to be of Tilliefoure (known as Tillyfour) a grade B listed building
in the arts and crafts style. This town house is situated in Oyne, Aberdeenshire. The dictionary of Scottish Architects makes reference to this 'Place of Tillyfour' (change of spelling noted) at http://www.scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=200238 and states it underwent alterations in 1897. Which is in keeping with the inscriptions on this work, as the three pieces are dated 1897.
The work in 1897 to the property, which is also the date of the plans held at RGU is attributed (in the dictionary of Scottish Architects) to Sydney Mitchell (Arthur George Sydney Mitchell) and George Wilson.
George Wilson is shown to have links to an architect firm on 13 young Street Edinburgh, the address that appears in the bottom right hand corner of these three works. Thus it is probable that the works are by George Wilson, (who was an apprentice at Sydney Wilson architects before they formed a partnership) though no name can be found.
