Description
I prefer this view of Scone Palace because of the English Ivy along the walls and a proper look at the roof line.
Alexander II and Alexander III, both crowned at Scone, ruled from 1214 to 1286. For centuries the greatest treasure at Scone was the Stone of Scone upon which the early Kings of Scotland were crowned. When Edward I of England carried off the Stone of Scone to Westminster Abbey in 1296, the Coronation Chair that still stands in the abbey was specially made to fit over it. Robert the Bruce was crowned at Scone in 1306 and the last coronation was of Charles II, when he accepted the Scottish crown in 1651. The Stone of Scone is now in Edinburgh Castle along with the Scottish regalia. In 1604 Scone was the family seat of the Lords of Scone, a branch of the Murrays of Tullibardine, whose original family seat was Balvaird Castle. Some info from Wikipedia. 1995 photo scanned. Zoom would help!

Scotland in the spring that sounds like a good idea, great shot.
It looks much more friendly from this angle, and the flowering trees soften the hard lines.
