Fowlis Castle, Category B tower house in Angus, Scotland
The stone tower house stands five miles northwest of Dundee, featuring architectural elements characteristic of seventeenth-century Scottish fortified residences.
The Gray family acquired the castle in 1337, following previous ownership by the Maule family and the Mortimers, marking a significant transfer of power.
In 1598, the Duke of Holstein, brother of Anne of Denmark, visited Fowlis Castle during his travels through Scotland, demonstrating its status.
The structure maintains its residential function as a farmhouse while preserving its historical architectural features under category B protection status.
Sir Alexander Gray of Broxmouth received the title of Lord Gray of Fowlis, establishing a direct connection between the castle and Scottish nobility.
