The Richmond Hall in Tomintoul was built in the late nineteenth century, and named after the then Duke of Richmond, who at that time owned about nine-tenths of the village. The building is two-storey, constructed of rubble masonry with a slated roof. Its seven-bay frontage features an imposing centrepiece, faced with smooth, ashlar masonry and topped by a triangular pediment. After World War I, the Richmond Hall was rebuilt and extended as a war memorial. It was subsequently used as a village hall and public library. Tomintuol war memorial comprises a series of commemorative plaques on the northeast facing wall of the Richmond Memorial Hall, including two bearing carvings of wreaths and other with lists of names of those killed. The memorial is generally in good condition. Full transcription of memorial held in AAS Digital Archive.
