Gargunnock House. Portion of Ancient Structure

Summary edit

Description
English: Illustration of NE wing and turret of Gargunnock House, Stirlingshire. Fig 981 from: (1887) The castellated and domestic architecture of Scotland, from the twelfth to the eighteenth century. Volume 4, Edinburgh: David Douglas, p. 393

The text accompanying the figure reads:

"In the thirteenth century Gargunnock pele was a fort, commanding a ford of the River Forth, about six miles west from Stirling, and is said to have been the scene of one of Wallace's exploits. In later times a mansion of the same name was erected on higher ground, somewhat further from the river. Of this structure, which seems to have been of the seventeenth century, the portion shown in Fig. 981 is all that remains, a modern front having been added to the old building. It formerly belonged to the Grahams, and is now the property of Colonel Stirling."
