Scope and Content Second-floor plan of main block and stable and tennis court 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 south range contains the gatehouse and vaulted cellars with courtier's lodgings and a chapel above. The royal apartments were probably in the east range (right). The stable and tennis court stands to the north of the main block. Falkland Palace's outer front is described as 'Ecclesiastical Gothic', and that of its inner front as 'Renaissance'. Recent research shows that this contrast was an intended part of James V's remodelling, rather than a result of different periods of work. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
