Tour Scotland Video Rainy Afternoon Scone Palace Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland video of a rainy afternoon by Scone Palace, Perthshire, Scotland. Scone Palace was the crowning place of Scottish kings where Macbeth, Robert the Bruce and King Charles II were once crowned. The Palace has been home to the Earls of Mansfield for over 400 years. During the early 19th century the Palace was enlarged by the architect William Atkinson. In 1802, David William Murray, 3rd Earl of Mansfield, commissioned Atkinson to extend the Palace, recasting the late 16th century Palace of Scone. The 3rd Earl tasked Atkinson with updating the old Palace whilst maintaining characteristics of the medieval Gothic abbey buildings it was built upon, with the majority of work finished by 1808.
