Local Fact of the Day: Mary’s escape across Loch Leven 👑

Mary Queen of Scots was held prisoner at Lochleven Castle for almost a year and forced to abdicate in favour of her infant son, James VI. In May 1568 she escaped across Loch Leven. By the end of that month she was in exile in England—and never saw Scotland again. 👑 Have you visited Lochleven Castle?
