Broughty Castle: 500 years of history at the mouth of the Tay
Situated at the mouth of the Tay Estuary in Broughty Ferry, this 15th-century fort has a long, captivating history.
It played a role in the Rough Wooing, a war between Scotland and England in the 1500s, and also provided artillery defence of the Tay in the 1860s when the threat of French invasion loomed over the UK.
