History

The castle is set on a rise with panoramic views from the battlements over the surrounding countryside. The original Myres Castle was a Z-plan fortress dating from around 1530. The castle has been altered and extended throughout the years. The square tower top of grey ashlar was added in 1616, providing a striking contrast with the ochre harling of the rest of the castle. This tower top features garlands, shields, initials and, with a parapet and flagpole, is an impressive addition to the castle.

More detailed history

The estate called "The Myres" is situated within the parish of Auchtermuchty. The lands of Auchtermuchty originally formed a part of the large possessions of the earl of Fife, and they were subsequently conveyed by marriage to Robert, Duke of Albany. However, in 1425 his son Murdoch, Duke of Albany, forfeited his estates to the crown. For a long time after 1425 the tenants of Auchtermuchty held their feus directly from the King, and their rents were accounted for in rolls of the Royal Exchequer. In the earliest documents referring to the lands o Auchtermuchty they were divided into two parts, named respectively the North Quarter and the South Quarter of Auchtermuchty, and this division was maintained up to the end of the 16th Century. The first recorded renter of the South Quarter,"The Myres", was an Englishman called Robert Coxwell who lived at the Scottish Royal Court.

Polished mahogany, gleaming silver and sparkling crystal. A traditional Scottish sideboard, groaning under a wealth of breakfast choices. Candlelight flickering across the table as a sumptuous dinner is served.
