姑娘樓, Colonial house in Tamsui, Taiwan
The Miss' House exhibits red brick construction with colonial architectural elements, featuring symmetrical windows and a prominent entrance at Tamsui Aletheia University.
William Gauld designed this residence in 1906 as living quarters for foreign female missionaries who contributed to education in the Tamsui region.
The building name 'Miss' House' reflects the respectful term used in Taiwanese churches to address unmarried foreign female missionaries teaching at local schools.
The structure remains part of Aletheia University campus, maintaining its original architectural features through regular maintenance and preservation efforts.
Female missionaries including Miss Marrow, Miss Elliot, Miss Doty, and Miss MacLeod lived in this residence while teaching at the Tamsui Girls' School.
