Fast Castle is a ruined castle and the remains are that of the castle rebuilt in 1521 but there are records of a castle on the site in 1333. The castle is on a promontory with cliffs of about 100-150 feet.

Getting there

The site is in the old County of Berwickshire in the Scottish Borders and is southwest from Edinburgh and along the A1 south from Dunbar. The castle is then east off the A1107 and close to the St Abb's Head National Nature Reserve.
