Ok, this is something that I have been curious about everytime I visit Scotland. A few miles outside of Doune going towards Callander, on the left side of the road, the is a set of pink or salmon colored gates. There is also some ruins behind it that looks like a derelict gate house. There is always a big pile of dirt in front of the gateway. Does anyone know anything about this estate? Who it belonged to and why it is such disrepair?
Thanks!

I dont think anyone is really going to be able to answer this for you as there are so many ruins in Scotland, however the next time your there, why dont you stop and take a look. Us Scots are friendly enough so if anyone does live there, its not America, so you wont get shot :v)

Haha, no, I don't know anything about it, but maybe Monty Python were residing there while filming The holy grail at the Doune castle, then they made a mess and left :-)
Maybe I should watch the movie again to see if I can spot any pink gate in the background!
