Rowallan Castle
Rowallan Castle is a historic Scottish tower house on a low knoll beside the Carmel Water, with origins in the medieval period and major work of the 16th century. The surviving core is a compact, multi-storey stone castle with later domestic additions and enclosing walls, long associated with the Mure family and later owners. It remains standing and has been conserved and repurposed in recent decades under private ownership.

As it stood in 1562
The shape it held in its prime.
A compact rectangular stone tower-house built of warm brown and grey rubble with ashlar dressings, dominated by a symmetrical southern front featuring two round drum towers with conical slate roofs flanking a central arched entrance reached by a broad external stone stair. White-framed windows puncture the masonry in regular courses; carved heraldic panels and an inscribed stone sit above the doorway. A low barmkin wall and fragments of curtain wall lie to the side, the whole set on a small grassy knoll in parkland.
