Doon Castle, Ardwell Point, is a possible Iron Age broch and later Prehistoric promontory fort in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. It stands on a coastal point where stone and sea meet, suggesting people shaped the edge rather than merely occupying it. The exact date and function remain uncertain, but the structure still belongs to the landscape and memory of the place.
