Camper Dreamscape at Lochranza Castle

Until relatively recently, Lochranza Castle was thought to be a regular tower house of the 1500s. But detailed analysis of the ruins in the 1950s revealed it had originally been built as a hall-house in the late 1200s or early 1300s.

It was originally two storeys high beneath battlements, with the lord’s lodging on the upper floor. The ground floor was a storage area with a ‘tradesmen’s entrance’ and a murder hole directly above. The lord of the hall-house took security very seriously. The main door of the castle was at a high level in the east wall, and was probably reached by a wooden stair or ladder. It led to a single stair that rose through the building, with three barriers along its way. The ground floor entrance was protected by a murder hole – a trapdoor above, through which defenders could attack intruders with arrows, stones or other projectiles.
