My guess is that the "castle" is a remnant of the old Clayslap Mill. The location looks about right. That would mean that particular building wasn't built specifically for the exhibitions and would actually predate all that. Definitely no later than 1900/1901, as 1901 saw the construction of the building that we know today as Kelvingrove Galleries, which would be a little behind where the "castle" sits here. So, yeah, my guess is that building is the last remaining section of Clayslap Mill and taken just prior to construction of the big gallery building we all know today.
