Roxburgh Castle (Scotland) reconstruction. King James II of Scots was killed during the 1460 siege when his own bombard exploded. The Red Douglas was wounded in the blast. He was well enough a few days later to Crown the Boy King James III of Scots at Kelso Abbey. #RoxburghCastle
The magnificently flamboyant Thirlestane Castle near Lauder in the Scottish Borders. It has origins nearby dating back to 1250, but on its current site the castle was built in three phases: in the years from 1590, 1670 and 1840. More pics and info: https://t.co/GXbz7dJiyZ

Scapa Distillery, overlooking Scapa Bay not far south of Kirkwall in Orkney. A great distillery to visit, and it comes complete with its name painted in large letters, Islay-esque style, on a sea-facing warehouse wall. #Scotch#whisky More pics and info: https://t.co/JRwySJG1xJ
