The top with natural marking including knots, tunnels & shrinkage as well as markings of wear & discolouration from the iron bolts that kept the planks together. The good condition of the top suggests it was used with an oil cloth to protect the surface hence the tack holes to the side edges.

Made for Meggernie Castle in Glen Lyon around 1850 by the estate carpenter, it was moved to the new shooting lodge on Invermearan/Invermeran Estate in 1872 (which was owned at the time by Meggernie Estate). It remained in Invermearan Lodge from 1872 until 1957 when it was moved before the Lodge was raised to the ground to make room for a new Hydro dam scheme. It remained on Invermearan Estate until 1998 when a series of moves by the family saw it moved first to Hungary, then Germany and finally back to Perthshire.
