Abstract: |
If Hatton had failed to impress the Duke of York during his sojourn in Edinburgh in the early 1680s. he was even further out of favour when the Duke became James VII and II in 1685. The combined consequences of political failure, allegations of corruption and crippling debt ultimately lay behind Lord Hatton's decision to sell the house in 1686 to William, first Duke of Queensberry. Much detail about the house and its contents is provided by an inventory of 1695. |
