Duff House Mausoleum
Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 11 Feb 2008
This elaborate building is almost lost among the surrounding woods, which makes it rather difficult to photograph. It was erected by James Duff in 1790, when he was raised to the rank of 2nd Earl of Fife. He moved the remains of his forebears here, including those of his father the first earl, who built Duff House.
