Old Photograph Innerwick Scotland

Old photograph of Innerwick located five miles from Dunbar, Scotland. Innerwick Castle was originally a Stewart stronghold, then passed to a grandson of Walter Fitz Gilbert de Hamilton, and remained in the Hamilton family, until its destruction. Alongside nearby, Thornton Castle, a fortalice owing allegiance to the Earls of Home, it was destroyed after a siege by the invading forces of the Duke of Somerset, during the Rough Wooing.
