Possibly shows Bryden Monteith, tenant of Tower Mains Farm, and wife Margaret [nee Cunningham]
At the time when this photograph was taken the farm belonged to a Brigadier General Robert Gordon but had been farmed by the Monteith Family for at least two generations. In 1917 the farmer was Bryden Monteith who together with his wife Margaret lived at Tower Mains. Bryden Monteith was born in 1861 at Tower Mains when his father also named Bryden was the occupier.
Tower Mains is now a mixture of residential and commercial premises.
