Burleigh Castle

Great

The ruins of the castle of peculiar forms are found in the village of Milnathort. The aforementioned ruins are in very good condition and can be visited without an entrance fee, so long as you go during the scheduled times. The castle was a gift of King James II to the local noble, Sir John of Balfour of Balgarvie, in order to defend the town. It was built in 1446 and underwent several renovations over time. It was abandoned in 1715 after the Jacobite uprisings. Today is the central attraction of the people and the area and represents one of the multiple examples of Scottish castles of the High Middle Ages.
