Scope and Content Dunrobin Castle, is a vast Baronial Mansion, the principle seat of the Sutherland family since the 12th century, originally a keep built about 1401. In the 17th century a large house was erected to the SW of the keep and connected to it with a turnpike-stair tower. These wings were altered and added to in 1785 and in 1845-50 a huge mansion was built on the NE side. The whole building was restored early in the 20c. Below the castle, linked by steps and terraces are the extensive gardens, including a large walled garden and pavilion 1732. Left of this is the kitchen garden. The gardeners' cottage is bottom right. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
