Scope and Content Garden, Falkland Palace, Fife Falkland Palace was remodelled in 1537-41 for King James V (died 1542). The south range dates from his reign, as do the exteriors of the earlier buildings. The east and north ranges were probably both built for King James IV (1488-1513). Records show that the garden existed by the 15th century. It was used to grow food for the 'Dig for Victory' campaign in World War II and then landscaped by a designer who had previously worked for the king of Ethiopia.
