Description

Bothwell Castle is one of Scotland's great castles, and was heavily involved in the Scottish Wars of Independence, changing hands several times. Originally a de Moray (Murray) castle, the castle became the property of the Black Douglases when the Murray heiress married the colourfully named Archibald the Grim, 4th earl of Douglas. The book describes this important castle, and tells the castle's story, which is central to Scotland’s medieval history, and the history of the Murray and Douglas families. 6300 words 9 images.
