Doune Castle (1)
So, having looked at 'the other' Doune Castle, we should I suppose, have a look at the better known one! Doune Castle stands in the Perthshire village of Doune, and is sited in a strong defensive position in the angle formed by the River Teith and the Ardoch Burn. A narrow headland, some half a mile long, exists between the two rivers, and the castle sits across the neck, sitting on a prominent hummock.
