The Scottish Pearl

Again, I love exploring! So as I approached Culross village, I was filled with all kinds of anticipation.

What a quaint and pretty village!

I read that originally, Culross served as a port city on the Firth of Forth and is believed to have been founded by Saint Serf during the 6th century. These are a few pics I took of the Village Square:

The most prominent building was Culross Palace. Culross Palace is a late 16th – early 17th century merchant’s house. You cannot miss it! It is a striking amber colour. Unfortunately, it was closed so I had to admire it outside its iron gate.

It is definitely worth a return visit. It is like time has stopped here. Almost a time capsule. However, the large “Outlander” poster in the village square reminded me what century I was in. Apparently, the village was used as a set for the successful series.

Well, I am marking the village down for a Spring visit. The village must look amazing in Spring.
