Bid to keep castle which inspired Walt Disney pink

However, National Trust for Scotland said rain was threatening the castle structure in Aberdeenshire. Scaffolding has been put up around the building, which has been swathed in the pink mesh seven storeys high to protect it during the work, which is expected to take about a year.Iain Hawkins, the NTS north east regional director, said: "Craigievar holds a special place in the hearts and minds of the local community, across Scotland and indeed globally, thanks in no small part to the castle's famous pink exterior, which was introduced in 1824 by Sir John Forbes.
