Deerstalker
- Description:
A Deerstalker, worn by a retired gamekeeper, Cowhill Estate, Dumfries. The most famous wearer of this kind of hat is the fictional character Sherlock Holmes. However, Arthur Conan Doyle never actually wrote that Holmes wore a deerstalker, although he does have Doctor Watson describe him wearing "his ear-flapped travelling cap".
