Old photograph of Callert House by Loch Leven in the Highlands of Scotland. This Scottish mansion house, now in ruins, was built for Sir Duncan Cameron of Fassifern in the 1830s and replaced a previous Callert House that had been burned down. Duncan, born 1775, died 1863, was the son of Sir Ewen Cameron of Fassifern, he became a prominent civic figure and developed much of Fort William. A Cameron daughter married a Fairfax-Lucy of Charlecote, Oxfordshire in late 19th century and later inherited Callert.
