Tulloch Castle (3)
Wikipedia states in no uncertain terms that 'Tulloch Castle likely dates to at least the late 14th century.'  Nigel Tranter described it as &quot;a square, sturdy and fairly simple keep, probably of the early 16th century.&quot;  My money's with old Nige!  How much of it dates even that far back is contentions.  All sources agree that the vaulted basement, with its gun-loops (14th century gun-loops?) and slit windows is original, and that the parapet is undoubtedly modern, but the bits in between are harder to date.  Tranter stated that the 1st floor Hall is original, with its great fireplace, although it has been 'remodelled and the windows enlarged.'  

Tranter also states that there are 17th century additions attached to the early tower, 'the first floor of which retain their fine ornamental plaster ceilings.  That in the east wing is most handsome, with excellent pine panelling and fine painted murals.'  I'm not sure exactly where this is, as both the &quot;1920&quot; wing to the east, and the wing partly shown here to the north, appear 'modern'.
