Description
Huntingtower Castle (2mi/3.2km to the west of Perth), formerly known as Ruthven Castle, originally consisted of two single towers (15th C) which were joined together in the 17th C. The most striking aspects of the interior decor are the wall and ceiling paintings in the Hall. According to legend, the daughter of the first Earl once jumped the 10ft/3m gap between the two towers to avoid being caught with her lover, hence the name "Maiden's Leap".
