Description

Fairlie Castle is a rubble-built tower of rectangular plan, dated 1521. The tower features squared quoins and dressings. A central round-headed doorway with roll-moulded arrises is located in the south wall. Various square-headed openings are present on each face, some of which are blocked and others sit below relieving arches. The angles feature the base of corbelled bartizans linked by chequer-corbelling. The castle is roofless. Fairlie Castle is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument, No. 317. Further details appear in MacGibbon & Ross, Castellated and Domestic Architecture, volume III, 1879 (reprinted 1977), p173.
