Tour Scotland Photographs Barnbougle Castle

Tour Scotland photograph of Barnbougle Castle near Edinburgh, Scotland. A much altered Scottish tower house on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, between Cramond and South Queensferry. It lies within the Dalmeny Estate, and is the property of the Earl of Rosebery. This Scottish castle is connected to the stories of two families, the Mowbrays and the Roseberys. For three hundred years the estate has belonged to the Roseberys who now live at Dalmeny House, built by the fourth Earl in 1815. Barnbougle, the original house just a quarter of a mile away, came into the family's possession in the 1660s when Sir Archibald Primrose bought it for his son who was created First Earl of Rosebery in 1703.
