Ruined 16th. century tower-house at West Wemyss
Built near a long gone chapel, the tower was built on to the old manse and was home to David, 2nd. Earl of Wemyss lived there, with his wife Anna, from 1635 until her death in 1649. The tower, sometimes known in the past as West Wemyss Castle, is situated adjacent to the Wemyss family burial ground.
