Fix this textCOTLAND’S TRAQUAIR HOUSE IS
Fix this textSTEEPED IN HISTORY
Fix this textTHE foundations of. historic Traquair House,
Fix this textthe oldest inhabited mansion house in
Fix this textScotland, have stood in the valley of the River
Fix this textTweed for ten centuries. Today it is the home
Fix this textof Mr. F. J. Maxwell-Stuart and is open to visitors
Fix this textat certain times. It stands among the woods,
Fix this textflanked by the rolling hills and moorlands of the
Fix this textBorder country, one mile from Innerleithen.
Fix this textOn either side of the main gate stand two
Fix this textgreat bears carved in stone —silent and forbidding
Fix this textsentinels that look down upon the impressive
Fix this textapproach to the house, a long avenue lined with
Fix this textfine old trees. Traquair is the house where time
Fix this textstands still, for no man has walked along the
Fix this textavenue since the Jacobite rising of 1745. In the
Fix this textsummer of that year the Earl of Traquair, having
Fix this textentertained Prince Charles, bade him farewell and
Fix this textlocked the great gates, setting a curse upon any
Fix this textman who opened them until a Stuart monarch
Fix this textwas restored to the throne of Britain. Since that
Fix this texttime the gates have remained locked, and the
Fix this texthouse is approached by what is known as the
Fix this text“temporary drive.”
Fix this textThe ageing walls of Traquair have sheltered
Fix this texttwentv--seven Scottish and English kings since the
Fix this texttime it consisted of a single tower, a favourite
Fix this textresidence of Alexander T (1107), David I, and
Fix this textlater, Robert the Bruce, when these monarchs
Fix this textcame to hunt in the nearby Ettrick Forest.
Fix this textMany scenes of historical importance have been
Fix this textwitnessed at Traquair —the signing of a charter
Fix this textby William the Lion that elevated the hamlet of
Fix this textGlasgow to a Bishop’s Burgh; the rise and decline
Fix this textof the fortunes of Charles, the first Earl of
Fix this textTraquair, who became Lord High Treasurer of
Fix this textScotland, but died poverty-stricken in Edinburgh;
Fix this textthe political intrigues such as took place between
Fix this textMaty Queen of Scots and Darnley, who stayed
Fix this textthere iwo nights in 1566.
