Portencross Castle
The castle is on a peninsula just north of Seamill and West Kilbride. To start, these are the most recent images, taken on 11th March, 2012. You can see the new path to the front door and the information board detailing the history of the castle. 
This is a closer view and you can see the path in more detail. These photos were taken at the high of a spring tide so this is about as far up as the water gets on a calm day. You can tell the wind strength by the limp flag. 
Now that the work to restore the castle is completed it's possible to view the interior on fairly limited dates during the summer months. 
These are three older photos, this one is looking north towards Cumbrae, Millport and Bute. 
This view shows Lesser Cumbrae, Bute and Argyll in the distance. 
More overhead and showing the start of the repair work in more detail. |
