Today I am presenting some pictures of the remains of the Inchmahome Priory, set on an island in the Lake Menteith.

Inchmahome is an idyllicaly-situated Augustinian monastery dating from 1238. Much of the 13th-century building remains. It sheltered the child Mary Queen of Scots in 1547. Rich in wildlife, the woodlands are carpeted in wildflowers and the lake is visited by waterfowl, including herons and great crested grebes. You can also find some friendly ducks, which will follow you around and ask for food.
