Scope and Content Second-floor plan west 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. A mural stair wound up inside the thickness of the walls to provide access to the second floor. However, the top floor could only be entered from the ramparts. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
