Old Photograph Purves Hall Scotland

Old photograph of Purves Hall, Eccles, Berwickshire, Scotland. This Scottish mansion house was built in the later part of the nineteenth century as a replacement for the peel tower to the north, which was recorded as being in a ruinous condition in the mid nineteenth century. A seventeenth-century window incorporated into the south-west wall of the house probably came from the older building, as it has a carved panel bearing the date 1675.
