        The castle known as the Peel Bog, or Peel Ring, of Lumphanan appears to have been established in the thirteenth century by the de Lundins or Durward family, the hereditary door-wards or ushers to the king. The natural mound was fortified around 1250 and witnessed dramatic events before it fell out of use. In 1296 England's King Edward I was winning the Scottish Wars of Independence and toured Scotland extracting promises of loyalty from humiliated nobles. On 21 July, he came here to receive the pledge of Sir John Melville. After a period of abandonment, the castle mound was reoccupied in 1487 when Thomas Charteris of Kinfauns, Perthshire, built the residence known as Ha'ton House in the 1487, which fell into disuse by the 1800s.

        At the end of a farm road, but worth a look for a walk on top and around the mound, there's an app you can download from the info board for more historical details, there are a few info boards dotted about,but an important site if you're into history.
