Paxton House

Home of a Berwickshire Jacobite family. George Home and his son joined the rebellion of 1715, and were captured at the battle of Preston. His death sentence was commuted, but his estate was forfeited and his son was transported to Virginia. His grandson, Patrick, who built Paxton House, remained in contact with exiled Jacobites after 1745.
