Ardblair Castle, Tower house in Blairgowrie, Scotland

The three-storey L-plan castle features a stair turret with a conical roof and forms a central courtyard with later additions to the structure.

The Blair family received the estate in 1399 through a grant by King David II, and the property transferred to the Oliphants of Gask in 1792 through marriage.

The castle houses numerous Jacobite artifacts transferred from Gask during the twentieth century, adding to its historical collection of Scottish memorabilia.

The castle maintains its original vaulted basement with a wide fireplace, while the first floor contains an eighteenth-century paneled dining room.

The courtyard contains a sundial from 1623 with twenty-five different dial faces, making it an exceptional timepiece from the seventeenth century.
