Provan Hall is thought to be around 500 years old. The exact date that Provan Hall was built is still a matter for argument: some architectural features seem to show it to be as old as Provands Lordship (1471) or even older.

Provand's Lordship is over 500 years old. Founded in 1471, it is Glasgow's oldest house, the last survivor of around 40 ecclesiastical buildings, called manses, which once formed the precinct of Glasgow Cathedral. It is a rare example of Scottish domestic architecture from the 1400s. Some of the building dates from the 1600s and later.
In his 1736 History of Glasgow, historian John M'Ure states that the manse was also the residence of the Canon of the Prebend of Barlanark, on of the 32 canons of the Cathedral Chapter. This title gradually evolved into Lord of Provan, and the manse consequently became known as Provand's Lordship, the name by which the building is known today.
Provand's Lordship, Castle Street, Glasgow, Scotland
Provand's Lordship is the oldest surviving house in Glasgow. It was built in 1471 as part of St Nicholas's Hospital, and was used to house clergy for the Cathedral. The house later became occupied by the Lord of the Prebend of Barlanark and perhaps was shared with the priest of St. Nicholas Hospital and Chapel and became known as Lord of Provan and then Provand’s Lordship. It is furnished as it would have been in the 17th Century, with continental glass from the period in the windows.
