Garleton Castle, Medieval fortress in East Lothian, Scotland.
The remaining walls of Garleton Castle include a round stair tower and several gunloops characteristic of sixteenth-century Scottish military architecture.
The castle passed through ownership from the Lindsay family to the Towers of Innerleithen before being acquired by the Setons in the medieval period.
The structure represents the architectural evolution of Scottish defensive buildings, featuring both military elements and residential spaces including vaulted kitchens.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins through country roads north of Haddington, with the site offering views across the surrounding East Lothian countryside.
The castle structure contains a preserved farm cottage conversion within its second block, while maintaining its original rectangular third block with crowstepped gables.
