Old Photograph Polwarth Scotland

Old photograph of cottages in Polwarth in the Scottish Borders, Scotland. Polwarth Parish Church was built in 1703, replacing a 13th century building. Polwarth Castle was situated halfway between Polwarth village and Polwarth Parish Church and no remains are visible these days. Little is known either about the Polwarth family, who held the lands associated with the castle until the sixteenth century. The first record of them is in a charter dating from the reign of King Alexander II.
