Gauldry (The Gauldry)
FifeA village in the parish of Balmerino linked with Wormit, NE Fife, Gauldry is situated 2 miles (3 km) southwest of Wormit on a ridge north of the Motray Water. Once occupied by farmers, weavers and estate workers, Gauldry is now largely populated by commuters to Dundee and Cupar. In addition to being the base of a local coach company, it is the location of Balmerino Primary School and has a village hall (1896) and a park (Duncan Park) dedicated to a great-granddaughter of Admiral Viscount Duncan of Camperdown.
Nearby stands Naughton House (1793) and the ruins of Naughton Castle built in the 16th century by the Hay family.
