Ravenscraig Castle
Ravenscraig Castle on the eastern outskirts of Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland was built as a noble residence and has generally been regarded more as an artillery fort than a castle. With a long history going back to the 1460's where James 11 acquired the estate to build a castle for his queen, Mary of Gueldres, and in 1470 after both of their deaths, the son James III granted the castle to William Sinclair, Earl of Caithness. Ravenscraig Castle still today shows a fine array of gun holes and an impressive rock cut ditch, there is a well, numerous dark and gloomy cellars, the view across the Firth of Forth to the city of Edinburgh and beyond, and the fulmars, the castle's main residence today, nesting on the masonry ledges.
