Dirlot Castle (4)
This drawing, like the plan of Forse Castle, was drawn by the Rev. A. Miller some time around 1890 and was used by MacGibbon &amp; Ross.  It is interesting to note that at that time, there was evidently enough of the ground floor level of the tower still visible, for Reverent Miller to be able to determine where the arrow slit windows were.  The entrance to the small courtyard was not where it says &quot;steep ascent&quot;, but via a steep path under the east wall of the tower, to a gateway at the junction of the tower and courtyard wall.
