Old Photograph Castle Grandtully Perthshire Scotland

Old photograph of the Castle in Grandtully near Aberfeldy, Perthshire, Scotland. Grandtully Castle is a tall and shapely tower house of the later s 6th century, but with a much older nucleus and later additions. It is a seat of the Steuart-Fothringham family, the Stewarts having been here since the late 4th century, descending from Alexander 4th High Steward of Scotland. In 1626 Sir William Stewart, Sheriff of Perth, made various alterations, especially to the picturesque turreted roof line. Occupying a strategic position, Grandtully was much in demand as a headquarters for commanders such as Montrose, General Mackay, Argyll, and Prince Charles Edward Stuart all using it. An officer of Mackay's is said to have been shot dead in one of the angle turrets, the blood allegedly permanently staining the floor. More recently, the famous Admiral Earl Beatty was tenant here; and another shooting tenant, the Maharajah Duleep Singh, distinguished himself one August Twelfth by personally shooting no fewer than 220 brace of grouse in one day.
