Remnant at the SW corner of the former of Tullichewan Castle. The Tullichewan estate was bought from the Colquhouns of Luss by John Stirling of Cordale in 1792. The castle was designed by the architect Robert Lugar, who also designed Balloch Castle. It is the first example in Scotland of an asymmetrical Gothic house. The grounds of the castle were laid out by Alexander Naysmith, landscape gardener, architect and, most famously, artist, principally remembered for his portrait of Robert Burns. John Horrocks junior of Horrocks and Company, cotton manufacturers, of Preston, purchased the castle in 1817 and lived there until the death of his wife in 1843. The estate was then sold to William Campbell of J & W Campbell, Glasgow merchants. The estate remained in the Campbell family until the twentieth century. The last owner of the castle was J. Scott Anderson, who lived there from about 1930. The castle was requisitioned during WWII for use by the WRNS and naval personnel. Latterly the castle was used as accommodation for workers at the Torpedo factory, which now houses the Loch Lomond Factory Outlets. After that it lay unused for many years before being demolished in 1954.
