(Approx. NS 4727 8713) The Earls of Lennox had a castle near the Moot Hill at Catter.
G Chalmers 1890.
The stronghold of the Earls of Lennox at Catter was described as a manor-house in 1505. No trace of the manor house remains.
J Irving 1879.
Although no conclusive evidence could be found, the existence of a cobbled area at the rear of Catter House at NS 4711 8708 together with very small windows in, and a spiral staircase from,the now modernised basement, suggest that the present house is possibly on the site of the 16th century manor house.
Visited by OS (R D) 17 March 1965.
