During my visit to Boghall Castle near Biggar, I was captivated by its rich history and strategic location. Built in the 14th century by the Fleming family, the castle replaced an older motte-and-bailey structure and was strategically situated where the valleys of the River Tweed and River Clyde converge. This positioning offered natural defences, making it a formidable fortress of its time.

Walking among the ruins, I could almost hear the echoes of history. Notably, Edward II of England stayed here in 1310, and Mary, Queen of Scots, visited in 1565. The remnants of two D-shaped towers still stand, offering a glimpse into the castle's grandeur.

While the site is now in ruins, it's a must-visit for history enthusiasts. The surrounding landscape adds to the castle's charm, making it a peaceful spot to reflect on Scotland's storied past. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Scottish history...
