Castle Cary Castle, Tower house near Falkirk, Scotland

The rectangular stone fortress rises 12 meters high with an L-shaped wing, pitched roofs, and crow-stepped gables near the Antonine Wall.

Built around 1480 by Henry Livingstone, the castle changed ownership multiple times and endured burning during the 1715 Jacobite uprising.

The castle features a barrel-vaulted cellar, original fireplace bases, moulded jambs, and traces of 18th-century wall paintings inside its chambers.

The castle functions as a private residence located 6 miles from Falkirk, with no public access to the interior or surrounding grounds.

The structure incorporates stone materials from a nearby Roman Antonine fort, connecting medieval Scottish architecture with ancient Roman construction methods.
