Tantallon Castle & The Bass Rock

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Albacross Imaging created this amazing drone video of two of the more well known sights in East Lothian county of southeastern Scotland. Tantallon Castle is a 14th century fortress in a semi-ruined state. It overlooks the Firth of Forth, the great river estuary on which Edinburgh sits. You'll also see the Bass Rock, which sits just off the coast from the castle. The rock is home to a castle which became a notorious prison after the English Civil War and is referred to as the Alcatraz of Scotland.
