Old Photograph Ballimore House Scotland
Old photograph of Ballimore House near Loch Fyne in Argyll, Scotland. A mid 19th century Scottish baronial mansion house with landscaped gardens laid out by Thomas Mawson in 1910. Thomas Hayton Mawson, born 5 May 1861, died 14 November 1933, known as T. H. Mawson, was a British garden designer, landscape architect, and town planner. Mawson was born in Nether Wyresdale, Lancashire, England, and left school at age 12. His father, who died in 1877, was a warper in a cotton mill and later started a building business. He married Anna Prentice in 1884 and the Mawsons made their family home in Windermere, Westmorland in 1885. Mawson designed gardens in various parts of Britain, and in Europe and Canada.
