Tour Scotland photograph of a bricked up window in Dunning, Perthshire, Scotland. The window tax was a glass tax which was a significant social, cultural, and architectural force in Scotland during the 17th and 18th centuries. Some houses from the period can be seen to have bricked-up window-spaces, ready to be glazed at a later date, as a result of the tax.
