Gilbertfield Castle

Wonderfull ruins of a 15th century castle set next to a farm and the road leading to it is narrow and potholed but well worth the visit .

Not worth the bother visiting it's clear the farmer and the army do not want you there we were told this is private land by both

Highly recommended for those with an urge to state at what is little more than a pile of bricks. Perhaps I do the location an injustice, and the castle has a rich historical background. But, given it is inaccessible, being in a farmers field with no pathway, I do not see why it features on the map. Maybe there is a local historical society in need of a ruin to adopt. Perhaps its a 'selling point' to the developer of the local new build housing estate, estate agents larging the price with 'stunning view of historical castle' Personally, its a pile of bricks in the middle of nowhere, serving to let us know we arrived, or are leaving, Dechmont ranges.
