Tulliallan Castle

It is the second structure to have the name, and is a mixture of Gothic and Italian style architecture set amid some 90 acres (36 hectares) of parkland just north of where the Kincardine Bridge spans the Firth of Forth.

An earlier structure about 1⁄2 mile (800 metres) northwest, Old Tulliallan Castle, was built by 1304, when it was ordered to be strengthened by Edward I of England, it then passed into the ownership of William Douglas, 1st Earl of Douglas, and was granted by the Douglases to the Edmonstones, and thence to a junior branch of the Blackadders, and finally to the Bruces of Carnock.

A fortified house with a keep and rib-vaulted ground floor, it was abandoned in the seventeenth century.

During the Second World War it was used by the Polish Armed Forces in the West as their headquarters in Scotland.

Over the years the site has been heavily modified to provide accommodation, catering, training, and teaching facilities for the Scottish Police College.
