Address/Site Name Falkland Palace – Castle
Description 13th and 14th centuries, destroyed 1337 and perhaps at least in part subsequently rebuilt. Remains comprise base of large circular well-tower, ashlar-built with triple chamfered ground course linked on north west by curtain wall to circular north tower; very fragmentary.
Statement of special interest Scheduled Monument. Built by the Macduffs, Earls of Fife; in 1371 to Robert Stuart Earl of Monteith later Duke of Albany; James II made Falkland a Palace 1460.
Reason for removal from listing Scheduling [as a Scheduled Monument] is the more appropriate designation for this structure.
