Associated notes
This piece was possibly made by R Callander cabinet maker from Falkirk but circa 1870. It is on the MDA card as being associated with Bonny Prince Charlie as the house it is from was his lodgings after the battle of Falkirk 1746. He is on the card as the user but this cannot be right if the chair has been dated to the 1870's.
