GILSLAND POSTCARDS

Mumps Hall

These are the only postcards I have seen depicting (or not depicting!) Mumps Hall, which is strange as it has always been part of the Scott inheritance and is easy enough to photograph. Scott's bequest of eternal confusion over the various buildings and characters involved has led, and continues to lead, to numerous faux pas by hasty writers. RTFM!
