Patrick Campbell, Lord Monzie

Patrick Campbell, Lord Monzie (1675–1751) was a Scottish judge and Senator of the College of Justice.

[citation needed] Monzie Castle is a two-storey and attic, L-plan tower house, dating from 1634.

[citation needed] In June 1727 he was elected a Senator of the College of Justice in place of the late Alexander Ogilvy, Lord Forglen.

[2] His most notable duty arose in 1728: being chosen by the Equivalent Company to oversee the distribution of £400,000 (£57 billion in 2023) to those (or their next of kin) who lost money in the disastrous Darien Scheme.

Linked strongly to this, was the creation in 1727 of the Royal Bank of Scotland of which his cousin, Daniel Campbell, was its first Secretary.
