Scope and Content Cross-house, of 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). The 'cross-house' was probably built in 1529-32. In 1956, the first floor was decorated as the King's Bedroom. However, it probably just served as a lobby and closet for the east range's royal apartments. A dovecot was inserted in the stair-tower in 1840. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
