Lochnorris Collection

This collection contains 1,200 items relating to the public and private life of James Keir Hardie and his family, principally his daughter Agnes (Nan) and her husband Emrys Hughes. The collection has been acquired almost exclusively from direct family descendants. Furniture, letters, pictures, books, photos and ceramics are all included. Many items were gifts received by James Keir Hardie on world tours so a strong element of ethnography appears in the collection.
