Lochranza Castle
Lochranza Castle is an L-plan fortified tower house sited on a rocky promontory at Lochranza on the Isle of Arran, Scotland. Most of the standing fabric dates from the 16th century and the building fell into disuse in the 18th century; it is now in the care of Historic Scotland.

As it stood in 1614
The shape it held in its prime.
An L-plan, rubble-stone tower house with a taller square tower to the right and a gabled wing to the left, linked by a low curtain wall. Walls are grey mixed rubble with red sandstone quoins and window dressings; narrow vertical slit windows and a small projecting corbelled watch-chamber are visible. The main ground-floor entrance is a modest arched doorway set into the central wall. The castle sits on a grassy promontory with a steep, vegetated hillside rising behind it.
