    What a fascinating castle. I think these lesser known buildings are much more interesting than the greater places where there is often too much hype.

    Hi and thanks, Pinned on Places for sharing. When I examine this part of the inside castle, I realized the materials differ between the stone walls and brick ceiling. BC the restoration? or they are original? ---3:07. The view through this little window is magnificent as if I were back in time and imagine me watching the owner looking outside.---3:54. Wow, I didn't know about red/pink sandstone being exposed to moisture and dirt for a long period can cause mold, fungi, and algae to grow. I would love to visit this castle under the somber sky as you mentioned---7;45. Thank you so much for taking us to one of the superb castles in Scotland. Chì mi an ath thuras thu🙋‍♀🙋‍♀🛶🛶

    I love all the castles you feature. But, I think this is my favorite. The location is remote and looks isolated. Can you imagine looking out that tower? It’s hard not to fall asleep if you’re pulling guard. 😆 beautiful countryside. 54*North is amazing!

    Thank you for this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it and picked up some needed info on which Andrew Murray lived there in the 1550 -1600's. The castle is very similar to Huntingtower Castle. The Ruthvens and Murrays were important figures in Perth. The Murrays had been Sheriffs of Perthshire until the Ruthvens were given that position by King Bruce for helping him win the throne. The Murrays were forever trying to become Sheriff again by hook or by crook!
