Broomhill House near Selkirk was the home of Scottish artist John McNairn (b1910)  for nearly forty years from 1970 till his death in 2009.  This Scots Georgian house, with its old walled garden and wooded dean provided inspiration for McNairn's painting throughout this period.

 

Gallery 1 shows a selection of McNairn oils with Broomhill subject matter and Gallery 2 shows some of his watercolours with a Broomhill theme, many of which are from birthday and Christmas cards.  

 

The photographs of the garden and house in Galleries 3 and 4 are from the last years of the McNairns' time at Broomhill.
