Old photograph of Lundin Tower at Lundin Links by Lower Largo, East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. This is a lofty rubble built Scottish tower, once a part of old Lundin House which was demolished in 1876. The tower has been altered but appears to date from the late 16th or early 17th century. There was a castle here in the 14th century, belonging to the Lundin family, who held the property from the 12th century. It passed by marriage to the Drummonds in 1670, who were forfeited after the 1745 Jacobite Rising. Mary, Queen of Scots, is said to have stayed at the tower in 1565.
