From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Balloch Castle (Perth and Kinross))
Balloch Castle was a castle that stood on the same spot as that on which Taymouth Castle now stands, near Kenmore in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It was built in 1550 by the Campbells of Glenorchy and demolished in 1805. James VI visited the castle in August 1582 tipping the gardener 40 shillings - only a few days later he was seized at the Ruthven Raid.[1]
