John Petrie and Dugald Campbell assigned Ottley Hall to Edward Austen in 1802 to secure his loan to them of £5035; the capacity in which Petrie and Campbell acted is not clear but they were possibly assignees themselves or mortgagees in possession. In 1812 Petrie, Campbell and Robertson conveyed the estate William Hepburn for £500 upfront and a mortgage of some £4900: Hepburn assigned the estate in trust as security for his mortgage to John Browne of Lothbury.
