Scottish shipyard baronet Sir Eric Yarrow left £776,000 ($975,000) in his will when he died aged 98 last year.

The businessman ran family firm Yarrows through turbulent times for shipbuilding on the Clyde during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

The Times reported the money was left to his family, but with some donations to be made too, not least £30,000 to his carers.
