Winton Castle is situated on the north bank of the Tyne Water by Pencaitland village in East Lothian, some 13 miles south-east of Edinburgh. It was originally built by the Seton family in 1480, damaged in 1544 and rebuilt around 1620, when its renowned plaster ceilings were created.
In 1804, Winton was inherited by Lady Ruthven (1781-1885) and it was she who commissioned the creation of this impressive carpet, to be produced in India for the Drawing Room.
