Dumfries. The castle is Caerlaverock, which since it sounds a lot like Camelot (if you get what I mean) suggests the Scots have missed a trick by failing to cash in on the Arthurian legend.

Dumfries is quite obsessed by Rabbie Burns and, to a lesser extent, with the Marquess of Queensberry. No not that Marquess of Queensberry.	Click for next image.
