Law Castle, Tower house in West Kilbride, Scotland.
Law Castle stands four stories high with white-rendered walls and features multiple large windows, providing views over the Firth of Clyde.
Constructed in 1468 as a wedding gift for Princess Mary, sister of King James III, upon her marriage to Thomas Boyd, Earl of Arran.
The castle's architecture prioritized residential comfort with window seats, smooth interior walls, and fireplaces in each room of the structure.
The basement contains two vaulted cellars converted into modern living spaces, while the first floor houses the Great Hall with kitchen facilities.
The castle includes defensive elements such as gun-loops in its walls and a pit-prison, yet maintains larger window dimensions than typical fortifications.
