Scope and Content A road passes through a group of cottages and a potato plot. In the background a field with sheep and a ruined tower house stand before a wooded hill in the far distance. A postbox is set into the wall of the whitewashed house and there is a striped signpost in the road before the house. The houses back on to a small wood. The tower house has a cluster of small building round its base. Hollows Tower was built in the 16th century and still stands four storeys high to the corbelled parapet and crow stepped gable roof line. The towers of Hollows and Gilnockie were both associated with Johnnie Armstrong, a Border Reiver who died in 1529.
