Built on lands granted to the Irvine family in the early 13th century, Drum Castle consists of a number of distinct structural elements. These include a thick-walled tower-house dating from the 13th century, a three-storey mansion house built in 1619, and Victorian additions from 1875, when the architect David Bryce was commissioned to design a hall, new front door and first floor corridor. It is now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland and is open to the public.
