Corra Castle Corra Castle is an early 17th century stone fortified rectangular farmhouse or stronghouse, which was possibly built on earlier foundations. Of two storeys and an attic and originally encased by a moat, its plain walls are built on a boulder plinth. Incorporated in modern farm buildings, the east gable and part of the south wall stand to there full height. There is a tradition that Mary, Queen of Scots, slept at Corra Castle, during her flight from the Battle of Langside. A mile north is Drumcoltran Tower.
