Old photograph of Fowlis Castle located five miles North West of Dundee, Scotland. In 1448, King James I dated a charter at Fowlis. King James IV resided there in 1497. The castle was occupied by the Grays until after the erection of the more modern building which is a tower house dating from the seventeenth century. It was held by the Maule family and then by the Mortimers before coming to the Gray family in 1337. Sir Alexander Gray of Broxmouth was made Lord Gray of Fowlis.
