BALLOCH CASTLE

The history of the original  Balloch Castle stems back to The Earls of Lennox who acquired the lands in 1072 from Malcolm III, Son of Duncan. Around 1238 the castle was built and lived in by the Earl of Lennox and family but was abandoned in 1390 for a new safer stronghold on the island of Inchmurrin. 

At the turn of the 19th century John Buchanan of Ardoch bought the titles to the Castle and Estate. Using stone from he old ruined castle he built a castellated mansion on a location nearby. This building is now commonly known as Balloch Castle and a  mound next to the shore of the loch marks the site of the old.
