Dundonald Castle is situated on a hill overlooking the village of Dundonald, between Kilmarnock and Troon in South Ayrshire, Scotland. Dundonald Castle is a fortified tower house built for Robert II on his accession to the throne of Scotland in 1371 and it was used as a royal residence by Robert II and his son Robert III.
History
Dark age hill fort
The present castle stands on land where evidence suggest there used to be a hill fort. It is thought that a mixture of large timber built round houses and straight-sided structures occupy the interior. A timber laced stone rampart defines and defends the hill fort. The timber lacing caught fire and burnt with such intensity that the surrounding stonework melted, or vitrified. This firing happened about 1000 AD and seems to mark the end of the hill-fort’s existence.
It was about this date that the British Kingdom of Strathclyde ceased to exist, being absorbed into the Kingdom of Scotland.
The place name Dundonald means fort of Donald. It appears to be derived from the British *Din Dyfnwal (the British personal name Dyfnwal is cognate to the Scottish Gaelic Dòmhnall and English Donald). The eponym of the fortress is unknown, although he may have been any of the numerous kings of Alt Clut/Strathclyde who bore the name Dyfnwal from the eighth century to the tenth century.
Early castles
There have been three medieval castles present on this site. The first was built by one of the stewards of the king of Scots, most probably Walter, the first steward, who came to Scotland in 1136. There is no surviving evidence of this castle above ground today.
The second castle was built in the late 13th Century by Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward, this castle was predominantly built of stone. It would have been one of the grandest baronial residences of its time. It was largely destroyed by the Scottish during the Wars of Scottish Independence in the early 14th century. It was not untypical for castles that were not of strategic importance to be destroyed by those who controlled them to ensure that no one else could gain a foothold into the area. There is little remaining of this castle, however there is a well and a rounded stump of a tower near to the present castle.
The present castle
Dundonald Castle in 1903.
The third castle was built by Robert Stewart, probably to mark his accession to the throne as Robert II in 1371. It was three storeys high.
The top floor above the lofty stone vault was the upper hall – the great hall. It was for the more private use of the king and family.
The first floor was the lower of the two halls – the laigh hall. It would have been used for more public activities like feasting and the holding of the baron court.
The ground floor was a storage area. It was probably originally subdivided providing cellars for different commodities like wine, ale, foodstuffs and fuel.
The tower house was extended in the late 14th century to add additional private chambers and a prison. The outer courtyard (called more properly the barmkin) was completed and ancillary buildings (stables, bakehouses, brewhouses, smithy, etc.) built against the barmkin wall.
The third castle comprises almost everything you see above ground today, including the tower which dominates the hill.
Dundonald castle once had its own chapel dedicated to Saint Inan.[1]
The castle today
There is a visitor centre at the foot of the hill, which includes a cafe, souvenir shop and an interpretive exhibition. The exhibition outlines the history of the Castle and its preceding buildings with detailed models of the earlier castles on the site.
The visitor centre is owned by South Ayrshire Council and the castle is owned by Historic Scotland. Both the castle and the visitor centre is operated by The Friends of Dundonald Castle. The castle is a scheduled monument. [2]
The legend of Dundonald Castle
The following extract alludes to an old Scottish folktale about the construction and origins of Dundonald Castle:
In Ayrshire there is an unknown rhyme that is probably very old:
Donald Din
Built his house without a pin,
alluding to Dundonald Castle, the ancient seat of King Robert II, and now the last remaining property in Ayrshire of the noble family who take their title from it. According to tradition, it was built by a hero named Donald Din, or Din Donald, and constructed entirely of stone, without the use of wood, a supposition countenanced by the appearance of the building, which consists of three distinct stories, arched over with strong stonework, the roof of one forming the floor of another.
Donald, the builder, was originally a poor man, but had the faculty of dreaming lucking dreams. Upon one occasion he dreamed, thrice in one night, that if he were to go to London Bridge, he would become a wealthy man. He went accordingly, saw a man looking over the parapet

Hi everyone welcome and thank you for watching and reading this really appreciated all of you, this is last part you glad to know!! some information below, thank you again stay blessed..
HISTORY OF DUNDONALD CASTLE:
The site of Dundonald was first fortified in the Iron Age with a number of round houses being enclosed within a earth rampart topped by a wooden palisade. Possibly suppressed during the Roman period, the fortified settlement was re-built around AD 500. Incorporated into the Kingdom of Strathclyde, the capital of which was Dumbarton, it acted as a key port with evidence of trade with France.
In the early eleventh century Ywain son of Dyfnal, King of Strathclyde invaded Northumbria - which in this period stretched from Yorkshire in the south to Lothian in the north - commencing a war with their southern neighbour. Around about this time Dundonald was destroyed by fire but the cause is unknown. Either way the campaign was successful with the Northumbrians defeated and capture of the territory north of the River Tweed. When the King of Strathclyde died childless in 1018, Strathclyde (including Dundonald plus the newly conquered Lothian territories) passed to the King of the Scots.
Dundonald seems to have remained unoccupied after the hillfort's destruction until the twelfth century. At this time King David I of Scotland was actively encouraging Normans to settle within his Kingdom in a strategy designed to assist in bringing the country firmly under his rule. In 1136 Dundonald was granted to Walter FitzAlan who was also given extensive estates on the west coast to hold the Gaelic-Norse Lords of the Isles and the Lords of Galloway in check. Waltar didn't disappoint and in 1164 defeated and killed Somerled, King of the Isles. At somepoint around this time he established Dundonald Castle initially as an earth and timber motte-and-bailey structure.
The timber castle of Waltar FitzAlan was replaced in the thirteenth century by a new stone structure. Work commenced for Alexander, High Steward of Scotland around 1240 and continued for over forty years. Two great double D-shaped gatehouses towered over the curtain wall whilst four additional turrets provided accommodation and further security. There is no record of military action at Dundonald at this time but during the 1260s war was ongoing with the Norwegians over control of Western Scotland; nearby Ayr Castle was certainly damaged at this time. The Norwegian claim on Western Scotland died with King Haakon IV in 1263 but it wasn't long before Scotland was threatened once more. In 1296 King Edward I of England commenced the first War of Scottish Independence and Dundonald Castle was destroyed within the first few years of conflict possibly by Robert the Bruce (later Robert I) to prevent its use by the English.
By the fourteenth century Dundonald was still owned by the descendants of Waltar FitzAlan who also held the heredity position of High Steward of Scotland. With the Wars of Independence settled the then owner, Robert, commissioned a new castle to be built at Dundonald. This new fortification took the form of a large tower house constructed over, and re-using, the remaining structure of the former castle. The new fortification was probably complete in 1371 when Robert was elevated to the highest office as he ascended to the throne as Robert II of Scotland. A relatively old man at this time - he was 55 - he delegated much of the management of the Kingdom to his sons and seemingly retired to Dundonald Castle.
Now a Royal castle, Dundonald was maintained by the Crown with expenditure recorded in the fifteenth century. It was subsequently let to a number of different individuals ending with the Wallace family of Craigie who built a new residence - Auchan’s Castle - nearby. Despite James V granting the castle to Robert Boyd in 1536, the Wallaces seem to have held onto the property despite attempts to evict them but in 1632 sold it to James Mathieson. He didn't hold onto the castle for long and in 1638 it was sold to Sir William Cochrane. He was elevated to Earl of Dundonald in 1686 in recognition of his support for the Royalist cause and the castle remained with his family until 1953 when it was handed over to the State.

Dundonald castle, Ayrshire.
Dundonald Castle is a fortified tower house built for Robert 11 on his accession to the throne of Scotland in 1371 and it was used as a royal residence by the early Stewart kings for the next 150 years. It was said to be Robert 11's favourite residence and it was here that he died in 1390.
Recent excavations by Historic Scotland revealed the remains of a succession of settlements and fortifications on the Castle Hill dating back to the Stone Age. It also appears that the present Castle was built on the remains of an earlier stone castle built in the 13th century by the High Steward of Scotland as part of the country's defences against the Vikings. Remnants of that earlier castle can be seen in the fabric of the present building.
The High Stewards occupied Dundonald Castle from the mid 12th century and with the accession of Robert 11 this family gave rise to the Stewart Dynasty that ruled Scotland and later Great Britain for 350 years. Although the Great Hall on the top floor is now roofless, the Lower Hall features a fine example of a medieval barrel-vaulted ceiling, and there is a small dungeon with an obiette below it. Outside, the western wall of the castle features 5 stone carved heraldic shields which are among the oldest in the country.
Dundonald is now in the care of Historic Scotland and managed by the Friends of Dundonald Castle, it is open daily between April and October, there is also a tea-room and visitor centre.

Old Auchans House, Dundonald, Ayrshire, Scotland
It's so sad that this once impressive house is now in ruins. Over the years it belonged to three Ayrshire families, the Wallaces, the Cochranes and the Montgomeries.
To help build this grand 16th/17th century house stone was taken from Dundonald Castle.

Buried Treasures
Archaeology shows the hill has been settled since the Bronze and Iron Ages. Later fortifications were strengthened against Vikings attempting incursions on the Ayrshire coastline.
In 1160, Norman noble Walter FitzAlan moved north, to serve King David I as his steward (stewart in Scots). Walter was granted lands in Renfrew and Ayrshire and built an impressive Norman castle at Dundonald.
This large fortress was destroyed during the Wars of Independence with the English, but Robert the Bruce may have been responsible – to stop it falling into enemy hands.
Cradle of Kings
Walter’s descendant, Robert Stewart – also the grandson of the Bruce – became King in 1371. He began a long line of Stewart (or Stuart) monarchs who ruled Scotland and later England, for the next 300 years.
The current castle was Robert’s favourite residence. He established nine of his adult children as nobles to dominate Scotland. They chose to exert their power elsewhere, so in the 1630’s the Castle’s occupants moved to Old Auchans House nearby.
The ruins of Old Auchans House, once an impressive large manor to the Cochrane family, can be found after a pleasant woodland stroll – as can the footprint of their enviable estate.

Hey everyone quick live from New Slain Castle???? สวัสดีค่า ????????????♀️❤️
Slains Castle, which was originally known as Bowness Castle, was built by Francis Hay, Earl of Erroll from 1597 onwards. Some years earlier he had converted to Catholicism and subsequently supported the rebellion of George Gordon, Earl (and later Marquis) of Huntly, which attempted to reverse the Scottish Reformation. The uprising was defeated and in 1594 the family's original residence, Old Slains Castle, was destroyed by James VI (I of England) in retaliation. Hay fled the country but returned in 1597 and made peace with the King. He recovered his estates but opted not to rebuild his former family seat and instead replaced it with (new) Slains Castle, located at Bowness, six miles north of the original tower.
Slains Castle is a large imposing ruin fronting directly onto south facing cliffs about a kilometer east of Cruden Bay. You can walk to it from the village itself, or from the slightly nearer car park at a bend on the A975 at Grid Reference 103369.
At some point the images on this page could become of historical interest only because in November 2004 Aberdeenshire Council gave outline consent for the restoration of Slains Castle and its conversion into 35 holiday apartments. Various complications remained, but in September 2006 the Council decided in favour of the development. It was reported in October 2007 that Slains Castle had been fenced off prior to work beginning. The remainder of this page refers to the position prior to that happening.
Whichever approach you pick, you will find yourself completely unaided by any signposts. We suspect this is because no one wants to be held responsible if you fall over the cliffs that lie immediately in front of the ruins, or if part of the building falls on you. In that same spirit we should emphasise that Slains Castle could easily be a dangerous place: and if you do go, take great care.
There are, confusingly, two Slains Castles on this stretch of coast. The original lay a mile north east of Collieston and about six miles south west of its successor. This was built in the 1200s as a fortress. But in 1594 the owner, the Earl of Erroll backed a plot by the Earl of Huntly against King James VI. James responded by blowing up Old Slains Castle, and not much remains today.
The Earl of Erroll returned from exile in 1597 and made his peace with James. Rather than try to rebuild Slains, he instead used a tower house at Bowness as the basis for a new Slains Castle. The tower was extended and ranges of buildings were added around a courtyard.
In 1664 the castle was again expanded and altered, and a corridor was built across the courtyard. The final major change came in 1836 when further wings were added and the underlying castle was given a granite facing and generally Disneyfied.
Building costs and high living did little for the family finances and in 1916 death duties forced the 20th Earl of Erroll to sell Slains Castle. The new owner allowed the castle to fall into disrepair, and in 1925 its roof was removed and valuable dressed stone removed for re-use elsewhere.
Slains Castle today is a slightly unsettling place. It comes as little surprise to discover that Bram Stoker, who stayed at the castle, used it as inspiration for his story of Dracula. Earlier distinguished visitors included Samuel Johnson and James Boswell on their tour of the Highlands and Islands. You can read Johnson's description here, and Boswell's here.
And they still do: the front of the castle lies literally along the edge of the cliffs, while its rear, beyond what were once its gardens, is protected from unwanted guests by a deep cleft that cuts into the cliffs as far as the main access road. Internally, the castle is a collection of mostly brick-built intersecting corridors wrapped around rooms now deeply carpeted in nettles. In the heart of the castle is the courtyard, though it takes some time to work out which were outside areas in the original design and which were inside.
Slain's general air of creepiness is not helped by the vaulted room accessed down a muddy slide that was probably once a kitchen store complete with large stone storage bins all the way around the walls. Unless (as you begin to wonder as you peer round in the near total darkness) it was some sort of crypt.
Most castle ruins in Scotland are well cared for, often by Historic Environment Scotland. Most are carefully maintained as ruins and come complete with interpretation boards, mown grass, and consolidated walls. Slains Castle is distinctly different. You'd be hard pressed to call it attractive, even on the brightest of days, but is is most certainly interesting. This is what happens to ruins when nature has just been left to get on with it.

Earl of Dundonald BEACON HALL CRANBROOK KENT LOCHNELL CASTLE OBAN ARGYLL 6th Duke of Sutherland Case
MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA EXTRACTS: I
The Carroll Foundation Trust and parallel Gerald 6th Duke of Sutherland Trust multi-billion dollar corporate identity theft liquidation case which is threatening the political existence of senior members of the Conservative Party has revealed that the explosive FBI Scotland Yard criminal “standard of proof” prosecution files have named the Smith & Williamson accountancy firm in this case of international importance.
Sources have confirmed that the dossiers contain compelling evidential material which surrounds the Smith & Williamson fraudulent accounting offences “targeted” at the Gerald Carroll Trusts worldwide interests. It has emerged that Smith & Williamson was “appointed” by the Carroll Foundation Trust immediately prior to the commencement of the systematic embezzlement and fraudulent liquidation of major operating divisions of the Carroll Global Corporation Trust industrial empire spanning the globe.
Further sources have revealed that the files contain a forensic evidential paper trail concerning the David Cameron family “estate links” with Smith & Williamson through the Cameron family offshore tax haven based investment vehicles Blairmore Holdings Inc interests Blairmore Asset Management Ltd a clutch of Church of England charities and family trusts whose funds are also managed by Smith & Williamson.
In a stunning twist it has emerged that Sir Tony Baldry a criminal barrister and a senior figure in the Church of England is implicated in the Gerald Carroll Trusts debacle which is fueling speculation in Westminster that this City of London bank fraud case could threaten personally David Cameron in what well seasoned political observers regard as the largest ever society scandal embroiling the British Royal Family.
The Blairmore legacy that David Cameron’s father Ian Cameron left is unlike that of his forebears — it’s not in the rolling hills of Scotland but in glass and steal office blocks in Panama City Geneva the Cayman Islands Gibraltar Jersey and Nassau Bahamas — all tax havens which are “central actors” in the Carroll Foundation Trust and parallel Gerald 6th Duke of Sutherland Trust case.
MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA EXTRACTS: II
The sensational Carroll Foundation Trust and parallel Gerald 6th Duke of Sutherland Trust multi-billion dollar corporate identity theft case which is encircling the former HM Attorney General Dominic Grieve QC has revealed that the entire contents of Gerald Carroll’s multi-million dollar Eaton Square Belgravia penthouse and Westminster residences in central London were completely stolen including the theft of priceless US Anglo-Irish Scottish Russian national treasures and rare illuminated manuscripts collections dating from the thirteenth century.
It is understood that the world renowned Carroll Chair of Irish History attached to Hertford College Oxford University and the Carroll Institute academic research establishment have also been a victim of the FBI Scotland Yard “targeted” Withersworldwide and Goodman Derrick law firms trans-national crime syndicate operation which is known to continue to operate in the offshore tax havens of the Bahamas Gibraltar and the City of London.
In a stunning twist it has emerged that the former Kent Police Service Chief Constable Mike Fuller also a former Crown Prosecution Service Chief Inspector is understood to have been “directly involved” in the forging and falsifying of “criminal justice act” victims statements in this case of international importance.
Sources have confirmed that the Kent Police Service dossiers contain a comprehensive forensic treatment of the Belgravia and Westminster criminal seizure and theft offences which are “directly linked” to the high value crime scene locations “centered around” Red Self Storage Dartford Kent Alban Shipping Luton Bedfordshire Crown Recovery Ltd Kemp Road Dagenham Essex Five Oaks Lane Hainault Essex and the Culver Square Shopping Centre Colchester Essex.
Scotland Yard leaked sources have said that private investigators who are thought to be working on behalf of a US Government sponsored organisation have disclosed that the concealed Dominic Grieve QC and Kent Police Service dossiers contain compelling evidential material which reflects a startling litany of major obstruction offences that effectively impulsed the shocking break-ins burglaries and multiple seizures.
This source also revealed that a further bewildering five hundred and fifty million dollars of the Carroll Foundation Trust worldwide interests have been continually exposed to what is believed to be one of the most dangerous white collar syndicates ever confronted by the authorities in living memory.
The Carroll Foundation Trust files are held within a complete lockdown at Scotland Yard London under the supervision of the Commissioner Cressida Dick QPM who has an intimate knowledge of this case which stretches the globe.
