Palace of Inchinnan

Manor House (medieval)

What is recorded here

Inchinnan is a medieval manor house in Renfrewshire, Scotland, recorded as a historic place but not automatically open to the public. It may have been a home, a hall or a small administrative centre for the area, and that uncertainty is part of its character. The name still points to a time when local power was lived inside rooms, kitchens, yards and fields rather than written about from a distance.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Palace of Inchinnan as Manor House (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The Palace of Inchinnan was built in the 16th century by the Maxwell family, a prominent Scottish noble family. It is remembered as a significant example of late medieval domestic architecture in Scotland and as part of the historical estate associated with the Maxwells of Nether Pollock.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
