Drum Castle

The 13th century tower of Drum was extended in the 17th century when it was the home of the Irvine family. Alexander Irvine, 17th Laird of Drum, joined the Jacobites just after Prestonpans and travelled with the army into England. He also fought at Falkirk and Culloden, and evaded capture by Government troops by hiding in a secret room in the tower. The house is now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland
