This is the Bruce family home or, as it is known locally in rural Virginia, The Castle. The patriarch of the Bruce family served in several administrations through the late 60s and 70s. You may recall Robert the Bruce from the movie Braveheart. He was the leader of the Scots. This is the same family! These people were aristocrats. In the 80s, there was a mysterious shooting on the grounds and now the house sits empty most of the time, only used as a getaway retreat by the remaining family.
