Bardowie Castle

[1] Bardowie was the property of the Clan Galbraith from 1214, and passed by marriage to John Hamilton of Cadzow in the later 14th century.

[2] Thomas' son Francis Buchanan-Hamilton claimed the chiefship of Clan Buchanan.

[4] In his 1854 Rambles Round Glasgow, Hugh Macdonald wrote that Bardowie Castle was "an edifice of moderate size, somewhat timeworn, yet withal wearing an appearance of quiet cosiness and comfort".

"[8] The property was listed for sale in June 2019, and the news report photos indicated that the interior had certainly been modernized.

[9] The grounds included a former orchard, tennis court, walled garden, two garages and a patio.
