Ten years after designing the golf clubhouse at the Falkirk Golf Course J G Callander was responsible for that at Glenbervie. Like the earlier example it took the form of a bungalow set on a hill overlooking the greens. Bay windows framed a veranda facing north-east. Inside there was a large lounge and smoke room, a buffet, dining room, ladies’ lounge, ladies’ and gents’ locker rooms, driving room, heating chamber, kitchen server, committee room and lavatory accommodation – all on the ground floor, with club-master’s house above. The estimated cost was put at about £3,000.

Laying out the golf course began in August 1932 and the plans for the clubhouse were approved by the Dean of Guild Court that month. It was formally opened on 5 May 1933 by Mrs Allan.
