Plean Castle

[2][3] Robert Bruce granted the barony of Plean, or Plane, to John d’Erth soon after 1314.

[4] The castle was probably built by Lord Somerville, who acquired the lands of Plean in 1449, through marriage.

[4] In 1643 James Somervell, 8th Lord of Plane, sold the barony and lands to meet debts.

[4] It was rebuilt from ruins by Nancy and John Patrick Wright and their sons in 1991-1997 [5] to form a home and holiday accommodation.

[2] In its rebuilt 1990s form there is a "great hall" in the tower with painted ceiling beams and a large fireplace.
