Kilravock Castle

Kilravock Castle is a castle in the parish of Croy and Dalcross in Nairnshire, close to the border with Inverness-shire. It was begun around 1460, and has been the seat of the Clan Rose since that time. The castle is a composite of a 15th-century tower house and several later additions. The original name for the castle was Cill Rathaig, meaning 'church at the small circular fort'. (Read more)
