Earlshall, Category A listed castle in Leuchars, Scotland
The three-story castle features a central block, corner tower, stair turrets, and eight reception rooms spread across multiple levels.
Sir William Bruce constructed Earlshall Castle in 1546, following his survival at the Battle of Flodden, creating a substantial courtyard structure.
The second floor gallery contains a 1620s tempera-painted ceiling displaying images of an ostrich, an armadillo, and various decorative mottoes.
Located east of Leuchars in Fife, the castle maintains private gardens that open occasionally for public viewing through scheduled appointments.
The entrance archway from 1546 displays the original arms of Sir William Bruce and leads to a vaulted basement through the stair tower.
