a small explore,but i did think it was interesting,if you don't let me know and i can delete it !
i am a newbie,and away to the nurburgring for a week,so will reply to any questions when i get back.
a wee bit history
Originally built in 1504 by Sir John Elphinstone, it was known as the Elphinstone Tower for the next 250 years before the estate was bought by John, 4th Earl of Dunmore in 1754 and was renamed Dunmore Park. The ground floor of the tower was then converted into the family's burial vault.
was then raided by theives around 1988,bodys were robbed off jewelery etc,
body remains were interned.
this is whats left.
