This Castle is built on a peninsula, on the south side of the loch of Lochore, in the shire of Kinrose, and was erected by Duncan de Lochor, in the reign of Malcolm IV anno 1160: it consisted of a strong square tower, with many lower buildings, surrounded with a wall, having round towers at the corners; the wall on three sides are washed by the water of the loch or lake, which formerly abounded with pike and perch. In the reign of Alexander II. Adam de Lochor was Sheriff of Perth; David de Lochor is in 1255 also Sheriff; in 1289 Hugo de Lochor is Vicompt de Fife, as is Constantinus in 1292; David de Lochor is named in Ragman's Roll in 1296. In 1315 Thomas de Lochor was in the Parliament at Air that tailzed the Crown, and his seal is appended to that act. In the reign of King Robert Bruce the estate came by marriage to Adam de Valloniis, and from them again by marriage to Sir Andrew Wardlaw. Over the door in the tower is inscribed "Robertus de Wardlaw" who greatly fortified and repaired it. This view is from the west.'
