Old Photograph Edinample Castle Scotland
Old photograph of Edinample Castle near Balquhidder and Lochearnhead, Scotland. This is a late 16th century Scottish castle on the southern shores of Loch Earn. The castle takes the form of a Z-plan tower house, originally built by Black Duncan Campbell, Donnchadh Dubh, of Glenorchy. It is built on land acquired by the Campbells after their campaign for proscription, and subsequent demise of the MacGregors. It is said that Black Duncan pushed the castle's builder off the roof, in part to avoid paying him, but also because he omitted to construct the ramparts that had been requested. It is also said that the ghost of the builder has been seen walking on the roof.
