For other contributors' pictures, see Image and Image For context, and for a discussion of how the geology of the area influenced the choice of this site as the location of a castle, see Image See also Image for further context. Apart from this one tower, what remained of Ardencaple Castle was demolished c.1957 to make way for housing (this being Helensburgh, the housing was intended mainly for naval personnel). The tower is located near the junction of Frazer Avenue and West King Street.
