Arnot Tower

Arnot Tower is a ruined 16th-century castle located in the grounds of Arnot Tower House, less than 1 mile (1.6 km) from Scotlandwell, Perth and Kinross, Scotland.

It was built by the Arnot family who have records dating back to 1105.

David Arnot of Fyfe (Fife) was one of 2000 noble landowners required to swear allegiance to King Edward I of England in 1296.

[2] In 1760 local poet Michael Bruce wrote a poem about the true story of a love affair between an Arnot daughter and a Balfour of nearby Burleigh Castle.

The families were in a feud, and it is believed the daughter of Arnot eloped to Burleigh Castle.
