It is now roofless and much reduced in height, with the walls standing to a height of around 9 metres on its eastern side, and perhaps half that on the western side.
On the west wall of the castle is a small doorway, now filled in.
Craiglockhart Castle stands on the edge of Napier University’s Craiglockhart campus.
