Edingham Castle, 16th-century tower house in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.

The four-story stone tower measures 8.6 meters by 7.2 meters, featuring an oblong plan design near the town of Dalbeattie.

The Morrison family constructed this fortified residence between 1570 and 1585, before ownership transferred to the Affleck family in 1660.

The castle received designation as a category B listed building in 1990, recognizing its architectural and historical value to Scottish heritage.

Visitors can access the castle grounds throughout the year, with the site located at coordinates 54°56'48″N 3°48′43″W near Edingham Munitions Factory.

The structure became roofless by 1872 when John Hutinson acquired it, marking a significant change in its architectural configuration.
