@northernomad.scotland: 🏰 HERMITAGE CASTLE, SCOTLAND Nearly 800 years of history, power and bloodshed. ⚔️ First established around 1240 as a timber-and-earth fortress, Hermitage Castle was later transformed into the imposing stone stronghold we see today. Expanded during the 14th century, its brutal architecture earned it a reputation as one of the darkest fortresses in Scotland. Much of its upper stonework was restored in the 1830s.
