Tour Scotland video of photographs of Castle Campbell and gardens in Dollar, Clackmannanshire, Scotland. This was the seat of the earls and dukes of Argyll, chiefs of Clan Campbell, and was visited by Mary, Queen of Scots, in the 16th century. The tower house was built in the early 15th century and was known as Castle Gloom. The castle was originally a property of the Clan Stuart but passed by marriage to Colin Campbell, 1st Earl of Argyll and Lord Chancellor of Scotland. He had the name of the castle changed to Castle Campbell by an Act of Parliament in 1489.
