Cadzow Castle

The castle in the woods of Hamilton

Cadzow Castle

Constructed between 1500 and 1550, Cadzow Castle was known as the castle in the woods of Hamilton.

The castle was built by Sir James Hamilton of Finnart for his half brother, the second Earl of Arran.

The property overlooks a parkland known as the Cadzow Oaks. These ancient trees are all that remains of a medieval hunting park.

At present, only the exterior of the castle can be viewed.
