Kenmure Castle
Kenmure Castle is a fortified house near New Galloway in Kirkcudbrightshire, Galloway, southwest Scotland, long associated with the Gordon family (Viscounts of Kenmure). The site stands on a partly natural defensive mound and incorporates a 17th-century core with 19th- and early-20th-century remodelling. The building is now a roofless ruin and a scheduled monument.

As it stood in 1908
The shape it held in its prime.
Set on a low, partly artificial mound, the castle forms roughly an L-plan of stone ranges around a courtyard with the north and east sides closed by a high curtain wall and an arched north gateway. The west range is a long, two-storey stone block with pitched roofs; a taller multi-storey tower-like block rises at the south-east corner. Masonry is coarse ashlar and rubble; roofs in the prime state were intact, enclosing a complete courtyard and ancillary ranges.
