The album contains at least 31 photographs by Benjamin Scott of Carlisle of which 2 are signed in the negative.

This album of family photographs contains a variety of images, mainly produced between the mid 1860s and mid 1870s. They include a number of cartes de visite made in commercial photographers' studios and a few photographs of family portraits and effigies. However, the majority are large photographs taken at Naworth Castle, Castle Howard and another of the Howard's family homes.

Of particular interest are three photographs including Burne-Jones and dating from his stay at Naworth in August 1874. These were taken by Benjamin Scott of Carlisle. The album also includes photographs dating from about 1866 showing women playing croquet in crinolines, two pictures from the mid 1870s showing the Howard family with Gladstone, and a number of photographs of Rosalind Howard, George Howard's wife, wearing flowing 'aesthetic' dresses, which she adopted in the late 1860s before this style of dressing was fashionable. Wilfrid Blunt, the poet, wrote in 1872: 'I found her... dressed, as I remember well, in a way then absolutely new to me and contrary to all the fashions of the day. ... a green stuff gown, with tight sleeves slashed at the shoulders, and skirt looped up.'
