This castle has a long and vast history. The castle was targeted during both the Wars of Independence with England and due to religious tension between the Protestants and Catholics. A plaque about some of the more gruelling history of the castle is shown in the photos below. Due to the outlaw of Catholicism in 1560, the castle failed to have a purpose, became abandoned and descended into ruins. Now the castle is owned by Historic Environment Scotland. You can still visit the castle and be immersed in a guided walking tour. Visiting times for this are from 10am - 4pm daily however times may vary depending on the season.
