This is a great picture of the castle. I love the green hill leading up to it.

Here is some history of the Castle - Dating from the mid 16th Century the ruined remains of Carnasserie Castle lie to the north of Kilmartin in Argyll and Bute. Built by John Carswell, it passed to the Campbells of Auchinbreck in 1572 and was finally destroyed in 1685 when its owner, Sir Douglas Campbell, joined forces with the Earl of Argyll in the Monmouth Rising and the Royalist forces of MacLaine of Torloisk blew up the castle.
