What is recorded here

Farme Castle stands as a medieval tower house on Baronald Street in Dalmarnock, Glasgow. Its stones have watched the river and fields for centuries, perhaps hiding rooms where families argued, loved or starved. The exact boundary between fact and fantasy blunts when a building stops speaking its own name. What remains is a vertical shadow in South Lanarkshire, waiting for someone to remember why it was built.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Glasgow, Dalmarnock, Baronald Street, Farme Castle as Castle (medieval), Tower House (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Farme Castle was built in the late 15th or early 16th century by the Hamilton family, who were prominent landowners in the area. It is remembered as a medieval tower house that reflects the defensive and social structures of lowland Scotland during the period.
