Property hunters looking for a bargain could be tempted by a slice of 17th Century history. A castle linked to Mary Queen of Scots that has been converted into a home, is now up for sale for £625,000.
This is less than the price of an average London semi. Powrie Castle has undergone three decades of renovation.
Period dramas penned by Jane Austen and adaptations such as Netflix blockbuster Bridgerton are said to have renewed public interest in history. Powrie Castle is an A-listed property which even has a monument on its grounds called The Keep, dating as far back as the 16th Century.
