Langshaw


Annandiae praefectura, Vulgo, The Stewartrie of Annandail
Joan Blaeu, Amsterdam, 1654map image courtesy of NLS

The tower of Langshaw is marked on Blaeu’s mid-17th century map of Annandale but nothing of it now remains.

I have placed the location of the tower at the 18th century Langshaw House pending further research.
