What is recorded here
Ardvourlie Castle still holds its shape in Na h-Eileanan Siar, though time has worn its edges into mystery. It is the kind of place where stone remembers more than people choose to admit, and the sea keeps the rest safe from ordinary explanation.
Ardvourlie Castle is shown as a castle on the public map of Na h-Eileanan Siar. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Ardvourlie Castle was built by the MacLeods of Harris in the 16th century and is remembered as a strategic stronghold in the Western Isles during the era of clan power in Scotland.
