Ardwall (possible) (site of)

Ardwall House is an 18th century mansion but it may stand on the site of an earlier castle belonging to the McCullochs.

The house was built in 1762 and the central block was extended in 1895 with the addition of two flanking pavilions in an 18th century style. It is still owned by the McCulloch family.
