Clackmannan Tower is a fivestorey tower house located in Clackmannan, Scotland. It is a designated scheduled ancient monument and dates back to at least the 14th century, when it was inhabited by King David II of Scotland. The tower is largely still intact from its medieval days, including the roof, although part of the eastern wall was reconstructed following a collapse in 1950. It features a fireplace on the second floor and gardens and an area probably once used as a bowling green are situated to the south of the tower. It was sold to Sir Robert Bruce in 1359 and in around 1500 the south wing was added.
