Allt-na-Giubhsach, the Queen's Lodge on Loch Muick

Photograph of two cottages on the Balmoral estate. The cottages occupy a clearing in a pine forest with a garden to the front in the foreground. The cottage on the right has a turf roof and a wooden latticed porch.

A second version of this photograph by Wilson features a man standing outside the cottage on the left and rhododendron bushes flanking the path in the garden. Originally comprising a single cottage with a sod covered roof constructed for deer watcher, and described by Queen Victoria as 'The Hut', Alltnaguibhsaich grew to include a second building that can be seen on the left, constructed in 1849. This photograph is a later carbon copy of the original albumen photograph. Carbon was a process that was less susceptible to fading, unlike an albumen print that is prone to discolouration over time.
