Methven Castle.

Methven Castle is situated east of Methven, in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It largely dates from 1680, and was one of the last large houses built in the style of a castle in Scotland. It is on the site (and probably incorporates elements of) an older castle. This was the building in which Margaret Tudor (1489-1541), queen of James IV, King of Scots, and daughter of Henry VII of England, died. The castle was once owned by the Smythe family; it is now under the private ownership of another family.
