Tour Scotland photograph of Fingask Castle, Perthshire, Scotland. Fingask was once an explicitly holy place, a convenient and numinous stop off between the abbeys at Falkirk and Scone. It was later held by the Bruce family, and then by the Threiplands. In the eighteenth century it was a nest of Jacobites and was forfeited. Since 1969 the castle has been a Threipland property again.
