Blackness Castle
Blackness, near Linlithgow
Adult £4.20, Child £2.10, Concession £3.20
About 3 miles north east of Linlithgow, on the shore of the Forth
Blackness was the port for the Royal Burgh of Linlithgow in the days when Linlithgow Palace was a royal residence. So it was vital for the port to be properly defended. The castle is spectacularly located on a spit jutting out into the Firth of Forth and offers fine views of the Forth Bridges.
