Torwood Castle is a partially ruined 16th-century castle near the village of Torwood, in central Scotland. It’s a Category A listed building and has been since 1979.
Sir Alexander Forrester is said to be the castle’s original owner before it passed to the Baillie Clan in the early 16th century. However, it would return to the mighty Forresters in 1635 through George, 1st Lord Forrester.
The Restoration Journey of Torwood Castle
In 1957, Torwood Castle found a passionate guardian in Gordon Millar, who embarked on a journey of restoration. Despite the challenges, Gordon and his dedicated friends tirelessly worked to stabilize the castle's stonework, preserving its architectural splendour. To ensure the legacy of Torwood Castle, Gordon established the Torwood Castle Trust, which continued his half-century endeavour.
However, in 2015, the trust ceased operations, leaving the castle's future uncertain.
Taking the reins from the trust, Gary Grant, a close friend of Gordon, assumed the responsibility of preserving Torwood Castle. Since 2018, Gary has resided within the castle's walls, continuing the restoration efforts and breathing new life into this historical gem.
