An exceptional view of Gavin Hamilton's House, and old Castle just behind the tree on the left. This view also includes the missing spire on the kirk. At first glance in may look like the spire has been repaired, but if the image is magnified, it is obvious the photographer has scratched a little piece of the negative out to try and give the effect of a repaired kirk. The next image shows the unfortunate result. The photographer was John Taylor Gibb. The building within the grounds of The Castle is known as The Old Bakehouse, but this photograph was taken before that was built.
