Blackness

Blackness

the ship that never sailed

About 15 miles west of Edinburgh, Blackness Castle juts out into the Forth. Described as the 'ship that never sailed' due to its narrow, seaward-pointing bow, this 15th-century fortress has appeared in a number of films and TV series most recently in Outlander. Looking east, beyond the castle are the three Forth Bridges.
