Scope and Content Courtyard showing dwelling-house, well and north tower of Dunstaffnage Castle, at the mouth of Loch Etive, Argyll Dunstaffnage Castle was built before 1275 by the MacDougalls of Lorn who lost it in 1309. It passed to the Campbell Earls of Argyll in the 1320s. It was a government base in 1745, and, in 1746, Flora MacDonald's temporary prison. The square structure with four columns is a post-18th century wellhead. To its left is the 1725 dwelling-house, backing on to the 13th-century walls. In the far corner is the north tower, the residence of the keeper or castellan. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
