Morton Castle
NX 891-992 Dumfriesshire Scotland

Morton Castle Morton Castle is a fine late 13th century two storey fortified hall house, founded by the Adairs. Dismantled in 1357, it was rebuilt in the early 15th century, by the Earls of March. It was a stronghold of the Douglases, until 1715 but sadly little now remains of two of its walls. Visit pending. 3 miles west is Drumlanrig Castle.
