Old Photograph Castle of Park Scotland

Old photograph of Castle of Park near Glenluce, Wigtownshire, Scotland. This Scottish castle was begun in 1590 for Thomas Hay, the son of one of the Commendators of Glenluce Abbey, and his wife Jonet MakDouel. It was completed by 1599. The building was extended in the 18th century, and was used by the Hay family until Sir John Dalrymple-Hay sold the Park estate in 1875; it was then left uninhabited until it was restored in the 1950s and 1960s.
