45. Topiary In The United Kingdom - Drummond Castle Gardens
    The architect and landscape designer Sir Charles Barry made many castle andhe probably suggested some of the more architectural parts of the garden.  
    http://www.frostatmidnight.co.uk/Pages/Drummond.htm
    
    Extractions: Muthill, Crieff, Perthshire, PH5 2AA. A couple of miles along the Stirling road from Crieff you will find the imposing entrance to Drummond Castle Gardens. You then travel along the narrow driveway for what seems another two miles. This is the longest drive I've ever seen and you almost give up hope of ever finding a castle or gardens at all. Then the stone walls loom up on you. The car park is in a wood and the grounds of this estate are on a truly Scottish scale. The walk across to the castle gateway does not prepare you for the garden that is to come. Only when you have paid your dues in the little turret do you walk up the the entrance and then come onto the top level terrace and then see this... We went there on a hot, dry day, a rare thing indeed in this part of the world! The garden was at its most perfect. Little really has changed since that day in 1842 when Queen Victoria visited and you feel you are a timeless character wondering through a theatrical landscape. This is as good as it gets. In or around 1490, John First Lord Drummond, Steward of Strathearn and Justice General of Scotland was granted permission by King James the Fourth to build a castle. In 1605 the fourth Lord Drummond was created the First Earl of Perth after helping to secure a peace treaty with Spain. The estate remained in the family of the Earls of Perth for several generations and when Clementina Drummond succeeded her father Lord Perth in 1800 and married in 1807 the family name became Willoughby de Erseby.

    Extractions: Subscribers - login to skip ads Location near Nairn, Scotland UK Date timeline Building Type hall house, castle Construction System stone bearing masonry Climate temperate Context rural Style Medieval English Notes Classic Scottish castle, now partially in ruins. Discussion Rait Castle Commentary Rait is an example of a hall house, or a small defensible dwelling "whose analogy is the fortified manor-house of England." "They [hall houses] are not towers, and they are unconnected with curtain-walls. To distinguish them from strongholds which are characterised by one or other or both of these basic components, and particularly to distinguish them from tower-houses, which are also independent and free-standing, we might conveniently call them hall-houses." "Rait is an oblong hall over an unvaulted undercroft. A round tower rising from a spreading base projects from one corner. The elevated entrance led into a screens passage separated from the hall by a timber screen, now vanished...Off this a small lancet window permitted the porter to observe the approach. The doorway is arched in receding orders of broad splays beneath a label mould. A portcullis and draw-bar secured it." Resources Sources on Rait Castle Roger H. Clark and Michael Pause.
