Buchanan Castle Drymen Scotland abandoned Drone DJI Phantom 3

Buchanan Castle is a ruined country house in Stirlingshire, Scotland, located 1 mile (1.6 km) west of the village of Drymen. The house was commissioned by James Graham, 4th Duke of Montrose and built in 1852-1858 as a home for the Montrose family, serving as such until 1925. It was built as a replacement for Buchanan Auld House, which is located 0.5 miles (0.80 km) to the northwest but was destroyed in a fire in 1852. The old house and surrounding lands had been the property of the Clan Buchanan but passed to the Clan Graham in the late 17th century. The roof of the building was removed in 1954 and the condition of the house has since deteriorated, but it remains the seat of the Clan Graham

Hi thecandleman, I have just began researching my ancestry and am waiting for my specific results to come back in the mail. In the meantime, out of curiosity, I began to search for members of my family. I have known a great deal about my father's side of the family for a long time, but have never really taken the time to think about my mother's mixed heritage. I just began to learn about the Graham Clan of Scotland which is my grandfather's name and mother's maiden name, both Scottish. I started looking at large photos of Mugdock and Buchanan castle...I cannot express my feelings when I saw this drone view!! Who knows if I'm related at all, but it is fun to imagine the stories.Thank you for posting :)
