Pitreavie Castle, Castle in Dunfermline, United Kingdom
The three-story stone structure exhibits U-shaped architecture with spiral staircases and ornate details designed in the style of Sir James Murray.
The estate belonged to Lady Christina Bruce in the 14th century before Henry Wardlaw transformed it into a grand residence during the 17th century.
The castle represents Scottish architectural evolution through centuries, from medieval tower house to modern residential apartments while maintaining Category A listed status.
Located between Rosyth and Dunfermline, the castle grounds provide access to multiple walking paths connecting to the surrounding Fife countryside.
The Air Ministry converted the castle into a military command center with an underground bunker that coordinated RAF and Royal Navy operations during World War II.
