Further to my post on Abbotsford, Walter Scott must be one of the few writers to have such a legacy, which I mentioned here.
In the section of the new V&A Dundee (posts passim) devoted to Scottish design there is a model of the Scott Monument the original of which stands in Princes Street, Edinburgh.
