Stobhall

Stobhall is a 16th century castle which was owned by the Drummonds for centuries.

In the 15th century William Drummond, a younger son of John Drummond of Stobhall, married Isobel d’Erth, one of four co-heiresses of William d’Erth de Plane.

There is a tradition that a tunnel under the river connected Stobhall with Inchbervis Castle on the opposite bank of the Tay, although considering an almost 2km distance this seems unlikely.
