Photograph of Douglas Castle, with a caption that reads: 'Douglas Castle, Pokfulum [Pokfulam]. A country residence built by the late Douglas Lapraik, Esq, and at the time rather designed to increase the beauties of the view than to afford extensive accommodation. "The Castle" has been for many years a favorite resort during the summer months to those who availed themselves of the hospitality of the owner. It is the nearest building to the Reservoir'.
