Dunure Castle
Dunure Castle is a medieval stronghold on a rocky promontory on the Carrick coast of South Ayrshire, Scotland. The surviving fabric dates chiefly from the 15th and 16th centuries; by the late 17th century it had been largely ruined and today stands as a coastal ruin beside Dunure harbour.

As it stood in 1563
The shape it held in its prime.
A multi-storey, irregularly shaped stone keep set atop a precipitous sandstone promontory with thick masonry walls and a crenellated parapet; narrow vertical arrow-slits and larger, rectangular glazed window openings puncture the elevations. A lower east–northeast range of service buildings with regular rectangular windows runs down the slope toward the shore. Massive natural boulders and a sheer cliff base surround the castle; roofs in the prime would have been pitched and slate-covered, and cellars and barrel-vaulted basements lay within the rock.
