Tour Scotland photograph of the Doocot near Elcho Castle in Perthshire, Scotland. This picturesque 16th century Doocot is very close to Elcho Castle. This type of structure was intended to house pigeons or doves in days gone by in Scotland. Pigeons and doves were an important food source historically, and were kept for their eggs, flesh, and dung. I was speaking to farmer tonight, on whose land the Doocot is on. He was most interesting, telling me many facts, including the fact that this doocot contains more than 400 pigeon holes.

Tour Scotland Photograph and Video Panorama Dundee

Tour Scotland photograph of a Panorama view of Dundee, Scotland.



Tour Scotland video of a Panorama view of Dundee, Scotland. Shot this video and photograph from Dundee Law a spot that provides a popular, easily accessed vantage point placed high above the centre of Dundee, Scotland's fourth largest city. An extinct volcano formed around 400 million years ago, the 572 foot peak is the city's most distinctive landmark and an enduring attraction for visitors and locals. Central to Dundee’s defences for thousands of years, the Law was used as Iron Age hillfort and prehistoric graves dating to about 1500 BC have been uncovered on its slopes. Roman pottery dating from the 1st century AD has also been discovered. The most notable find, a cup-shaped steatite lamp found during the construction of the war memorial, can be seen in the city’s McManus Galleries. In the 1820s, the Law had a 300 metre long, 3 meter diameter tunnel driven through its eastern flank to carry the Dundee to Newtyle railway. Originally drawn by horse, the first locomotive was introduced in 1833 and operated until the 1860s when a new railway line was built to skirt the hill.

Tour Scotland Photographs Fingask Castle Perthshire

Tour Scotland photograph of Fingask Castle, Carse Of Gowrie, Perthshire, Scotland. Fingask is perched 200 feet above Rait, three miles north-east of Errol, in the Braes of the Carse, on the fringes of the Sidlaw Hills. Thus it overlooks both the Carse of Gowrie and the Firth of Tay and beyond into the Kingdom of Fife. Fingask was once an explicitly holy place, a convenient and numinous stop-off between the abbeys at Falkirk and Scone. In the eighteenth century it was a nest of Jacobites.

Tour Scotland photograph of Fingask Castle, Carse Of Gowrie, Perthshire, Scotland. The Bruce family owned the lands of Rait, including Fingask, from the 15th century. The castle itself is dated 1592, and was built around a 12th century structure. In 1672, Sir Patrick Threipland, 1st Baronet, purchased the estate, which was erected into a barony the same year. Sir Patrick renovated the building and laid out the gardens. He died a prisoner at Stirling Castle for adherence to the ousted King James VII, in 1689. His son David, 2nd Baronet, joined the Jacobite rising of 1715, and fought against the government at the Battle of Sheriffmuir. He was attainted when the rising failed, and his forfeited estates were purchased by the York Buildings Company, an English waterworks company which had begun to specialise in forfeited land.

Tour Scotland photograph of Fingask Castle, Carse Of Gowrie, Perthshire, Scotland. Fingask Castle was badly damaged in 1745 by government troops, as the Threiplands once more supported the Jacobites in the second Jacobite rising. and in 1783, it was bought back by the Threiplands, in the person of Dr. Stuart Threipland, physician. Between 1828 and 1840 additions were made to the south and west of the castle. Sir Patrick Threipland, 4th Baronet (1762-1837) laid out the park, and his son planted the topiary gardens and installed statuary. The castle passed out of the Threipland family again in 1917, when it was bought by whisky merchant Sir John Henderson Stewart, 1st Baronet. The estate was bought by H. B. Gilroy of Ballumbie in 1925, who removed many of the 19th century additions, and since 1969 has once more been the home of the Threipland family. The castle is a listed building, and the estate is included on the Inventory of Historic Gardens and Designed Landscapes, the national register of significant gardens.
