Auchenharvie Castle, Tower house in Stewarton, Scotland.
The ruins of Auchenharvie Castle stand on an elevated position, constructed from whinstone with freestone corners and remnants of barrel roof vaulting.
Built in the late 16th century, the castle passed from the Wallace family to the Cochrane family in 1640, marking significant changes in local power structures.
Samuel Johnson and James Boswell visited Lady Susanna Montgomery, the dowager countess of Eglinton, at Auchenharvie Castle in 1773.
The castle ruins, located at coordinates 55.6646, -4.60437, require careful approach as the structure remains in an unstable condition.
The castle mound contains diverse wildflowers, while historical records indicate the site was connected to medical practices during the pre-1832 anatomy period.
