To see a map of the castles and ruins, and to see the photographs, click here. The photographs of Scottish castles and ruins were taken by Allan Goodall during a trip to Scotland in 1992.

I visited a number of castles and ruins during a vacation trip to Scotland in September and October 1992. Most of these sites were not planned ahead of time, they were just locations that I came across during the trip. Hopefully the viewer will find the sites as interesting as I did.

There are other sites that I haven't put onto this site as yet: Edinburgh Castle, Stirling Castle, and three palace ruins in Kirkwall, Orkney. Most of my photographs were taken on slide film. A couple of months after the trip I had some of the pictures scanned onto a Kodak Photo-CD. I don't currently have a slide scanner, or access to one. Until I do, I will be unable to post the pictures of these additional sites. When I do get these done, I will post them.

The essays first appeared in a slightly altered form in TAPA, the Toronto Amateur Press Association. I left TAPA in 1994. I believe it is now defunct.
