In the University of St Andrews photographic collection came across this delightful photograph taken on the approach to Airlie castle in 1890. It would be fun to write a short story or poem based on this image of a forgotten moment in time. Who was the visitor with tall hat, umbrella and satchel? Why was he visiting? Those waiting at the doorway castle seem to have been expecting him. Was this man bringing news? If so, what was that news?
