We're making a leaflet for an event at Paxton House next month, can we use this image? Is it subject to Copyright?

After careful consideration, the Board of Trustees of National Museums Scotland has made the difficult decision to close the National Museum of Costume at Shambellie House, near New Abbey, Dumfries.

For more detail on the decision, please see the press release here: http://nms.ac.uk/our_museum...

I’m interested in costume so took my family along last summer to keep me company while I had a look at what Shambellie had to offer. We were pleased to find a nice little tea room (spotless), with seating outside too, to perk up before going into the main house. There were clothes for the kids to dress up as Victorians and lots of things to look at in the staged rooms. Maybe not so good for very young but good for teens and a 10-year-old.
We ended up with everyone having a fantastic day out!

Hopetoun House Comments: I’ve only been to the tearoom, which has high ceilings and enormous windows and feels like a real treat.
Bike parking, though, is rubbish – there’s none, really: you just have to stand in muddy grass to use the wobbly fence round the carpark.
