"This is a story of a house and of the people who lived there, moulded it and gave it character, a story that can only be told here in brief, for to tell it all would mean at least one volume, perhaps many more.  And the reason for this is that it covers eight centuries; centuries of blood, strife and intrigue but also of peaceful progress and quiet family life, eight centuries in fact Scottish political and domestic history."
