Tour Scotland Winter Video Drive Scone Palace
Tour Scotland Winter video of a drive to Scone Palace, by Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. The long driveway to Scone Palace, which is a historic house at Scone, Perthshire, Scotland. It was constructed, by recasting a 16th century palace, in 1808 for the Earls of Mansfield by William Atkinson. Built of red sandstone with a castellated roof, it is a classic example of the late Georgian Gothic style. In the Middle Ages the land was the site of a major Augustinian abbey, Scone Abbey, nothing now remains above ground level, the crowning-place of the Kings of the Scots, on the Stone of Destiny, down to Alexander III.
