WW1 Queen visits wounded troops


Arbroath, Scotland. This Mansion during WW1 was used for the wounded. The Queen visited them there. After the war it was given to the Church and used as an orphanage for children of missionaries while they were on their missions. Not sure what church. It has been empty for many years. It first belonged to a jute baron and his family.

This is quite some building. It looks so cold & damp tho'. This must have been a great queen to spend time visiting people away from her home turf.
