Old Photograph Waygateshaw House Scotland

Old photograph of Waygateshaw House by Carluke, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. The Estate here was owned by the Lockhart family from 1539 until 1720. This Scottish house was a property of the Murrays of Touchadam, though passed to by marriage to Alexander Lockhart in 1539. Stephen Lockhart was indicted in the murder of Henry Lord Darnley in 1572. The family forfeited the Estate for taking part in the Pentland Rising of 1666, but later regained the Estate. It was then sold to the Weirs in 1720, and then passed to the Steel family.
