What is recorded here
Dalcross Castle is a surviving early 17th century tower house in Highland, Scotland, built in 1621 by the 8th Lord Lovat and later shaped by the M'Intoshes, whose 1720 arms still mark the entrance. It is not a ruined postcard but a listed, inhabited house: rooms, stairs and gardens have carried people through centuries of change. That continuity is what makes it worthy of protection, and it is also why it should be admired from a distance rather than treated as a playground.
