Stunning pics of Scottish castle that featured in James Bond shared by photographer
A photographer has shared stunning photos of a Scottish castle that has featured in the likes of James Bond and Highlander.
Simply referred to as Eilean Donan Castle, the structure dates all the way back to the 13th century, when it was used by King Alexander II to defend against Viking raiders. Over the years, the original castle has seen many changes as new owners have moved in, with it later becoming a stronghold of Clan Mackenzie.
For nearly 200 years, Eilean Donan was nothing but an abandoned ruin. It may surprise visitors who head there today, but the current castle was actually not constructed until the 20th century. Since then, the rebuilt castle has become something of a Scottish icon, appearing on packaging for products like shortbread and whisky.
