Glamis Castle - Lyon Clan Tartan Christmas Holiday Card

When the clan gathers at your place, treat them with a bit of your family heritage as a wonderful conversation starter. The Lyon family has resided at Glamis Castle since the 14th century, though the present building seen here dates largely from the 17th century. Glamis was the childhood home of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, wife of King George VI. The castle was used by William Shakespeare in his play “MacBeth” but with considerable “poetic license.” This photo is courtesy of Nick Bramhall, who has shared it with a creative commons 2.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/ It has been modified for colour, contrast, size, resolution and the addition of text.
