Lauchope House is a medieval tower house located in Scotland, likely built during the late 15th or early 16th century by a local landholding family, though specific builders or occupants are not well documented. It is remembered as an example of a defensive domestic structure typical of the Scottish Borders during a period of frequent conflict.
