Sinclair and Girnigoe castle in Caithness, Scotland, is a magical castle to visit. The castle is perched on the edge of a cliff, looking out over the North Sea. I think this fairy was looking out for her mermaid friends! My husband and I spent ages taking fairy videos and enjoying the views. I'm in awe of how they could build such a structure, in a time without all of our modern equipment. https://www.sheilawisemanfairysculpture.com/subscribe . . #FairiesAreReal #FairyMaker #SinclairandGirnigoeC

Castle Sinclair Girnigoe located in the county of Caithness in the Scottish Highlands. Castle Sinclair Girnigoe was once the family seat of Clan Sinclair and dates back to the 15th century.

The tower-house followed the typical Z-plan style, combining domestic quarters with defensive features suited to the turbulent era. Over time, shifting political stability and practical needs reduced its importance, lea
