Glen Tilt, near the Marble Lodge, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Glen Tilt, near the Marble Lodge, [in Scotland], 1850. There was a road through the Glen before the Duke [George Murray, 6th Duke of Atholl] was born...and though he may have - which we very much doubt - a legal right to close it, the charge of churlishness, and a want of sympathy with the public feeling, still remains...Surely his wild glen...would be none the worse if an occasional traveller were allowed to admire it without taking out a passport!...The example set by those princely-minded noblemen who...are not afraid of any desecration from the feet of plebeians, is worthy of imitation...for in our crowded isles it may fairly be asked if any proprietor of land have a moral right to enclose a district as large as a county, and make a wilderness of it?...even peasants, to say nothing of tourists, have somewhat superior claims to those of the deer and the grouse...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
