The view from the castle tower towards the south west shows how much land was cleared for pasture and the south side of the walled garden. The three ponds created from a natural creek on this side of the estate are clearly visible. The largest 'upper' pond is part of the Japanese garden. In the foreground the croquet lawn is visible, as are the fences that separate the manicured lawns from pastureland south of the castle.

  • 1896-1898
  • Part of K. McCann

James Jr., known as Boy by his immediate family, and born in January 1894, is dressed the same as his sister, Kathleen, born in 1891. In the 19th century, boys and girls were dressed alike until aged about 4. At this time, boys would have a 'breeching ceremony' where their hair would be cut short and they would wear their first pair of trousers. Although less common by the end of the 1800s, the Dunsmuir family followed this tradition.
