DJI Mini 3 Pro visits Mugdock Castle Scotland

Although the first written record of Mugdock Castle dates from August 1372, when it was owned by Sir Patrick Graham, it is likely the fortification had been built much earlier. The site had been acquired by the Graham family in the mid-thirteenth century when they brought it from the Earl of Lennox and the castle was probably started at that time. Constructed upon a rocky promontory overlooking Loch Mugdock, it was a configured in a rectangular arrangement with a substantial curtain wall connecting four square towers on each corner. It was protected on three sides by the loch which, prior to Victorian quarrying, was significantly deeper than today. The interior included a Great Hall as well as all the ancillary buildings associated with such a residence.
