What is recorded here

Stanecastle is a medieval barony and estate in North Ayrshire, Scotland, first mentioned in 1363. Its castle was built circa 1417 by the Francis family and later passed to the Montgomerys of Greenfield. In 1750 Alexander, 10th Earl of Eglinton, repaired the castle, converting it into a folly with decorative windows and an armorial panel.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stanecastle as Village (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

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