Crichton Castle

Highlights

• The location – sitting in splendid isolation on a terrace overlooking the River Tyne.
• The late 14th-century tower house – one of the oldest built in Scotland.
• Chancellor Crichton’s great hall– a remarkable legacy, built around 1450.
• The diamond-faceted facade – added by Francis Stewart around 1580. Nothing quite like this was built anywhere else in Scotland
