NX 68237 51068 This relatively small collection was catalogued in July – August 2018. It is stored in two ground floor cellars, and includes some large stair-treads and newels from a nook stair, several jambs, and some fragments of string-course.

At least two of the jambs, MCL/j/5-6, have small-scale mouldings, and probably came from a fireplace surround, such as those seen in the upper rooms of the castle. Two string-course fragments have parallels in situ, and can be seen at the upper levels of the castle's outer walls.

This and other inventories of carved stones from Historic Environment Scotland’s properties in care are held by the Collections Unit. For further information please contact collections@hes.scot
