About Finlarig Castle

Finlarig Castle is an early seventeenth century Tower House built by Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy. Built in 1629 by 'Black' Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy, the castle is an L-plan tower-house, formerly protected by an outer enclosure or barmekin, which is now in a dangerously ruinous condition. It was one of many strongholds built in Argyll and Perthshire by the Campbells of Breadalbane. The castle was visited by Rob Roy MacGregor in 1713.
