Dalmusternock

Dalmusternock is a stone dwelling house in East Ayrshire near Fenwick featuring traditional Scottish architectural elements. The building displays a prominent coat of arms above its entrance door and sits on grounds with open countryside.

William Mure built the house in 1615 after marrying Anna Dundas, before later inheriting the nearby Rowallan Castle estate. Heraldic panels from 1671 integrated into the structure show the family's connections to regional estates.

The house served as a home for widows of estate owners and reflects the social customs of Scottish nobility from centuries past. Visitors can see today how the building's design and stone work document this historical function.

The property sits in open countryside between smaller towns and is accessible for visitors who want to explore the rural landscape. Its location allows you to experience the surroundings of Fenwick and the rolling Scottish hills nearby.

The property contains three heraldic panels from 1671 carved directly into the stone of the building. Historical maps show that a watermill once operated on the grounds, leaving only traces visible in the landscape today.
