Stormont was a property of the Murrays of Gospertie, one of whom, Sir David, had possibly saved James VI’s life at Perth in the Gowrie Conspiracy at Gowrie House in Perth in 1600. He was made Viscount Stormont in 1621 and his family owned Balvaird Castle. The family became Earls of
Mansfield in the 18th century, and still own Scone Palace.
