Scope and Content Photographic copy of plan of Aberdour Castle, Fife This is a plan of Aberdour Castle, drawn by Thomas Ross in 1920, with north at the bottom. The 14th-century tower is at the bottom right, with a service wing of c.1600 to the right. Above the tower is an addition of c.1570, by the 4th Earl of Morton, and to the left is a range added in about 1635 by the 6th Earl. Thomas Ross was the co-author, with David Macgibbon, of the five-volume 'Castellated and Domestic Architecture of Scotland', published between 1887 and 1892. This was the first serious study of its kind, and remains unrivalled in the scale and comprehensiveness of its treatment of the subject. The oldest part of Aberdour Castle is a 14th-century tower on a rhomboidal plan, which was extended to the east in the 16th and 17th centuries. To the south are the remains of a terraced garden, with a beehive dovecot, and to the east of that is a walled garden. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
