This castle was used as a maternity hospital during war time .I was born in it 1944.Sad to see it in this state .

[@annabiotic1078]

It’s sad to see but still hauntingly beautiful. I’m dying to visit Scotland. I’ve heard nothing but wonderful things about it.

[@eleanorcurrie5969]

Awesome drone filming. Great video! The music was so apt too. Well done. Looking forward to seeing more like this.

I keep coming back to this one as its the music, its so haunting, it just fits with this place so much ❤

[@coconutislanddrones]

Thank you. Finding the right music is always the hardest part for me. On this occasion it was one of the first peices of music I listened to.

That's a bugger to get to that place I even had to walk 🤣🤣 nearly killed me 🤣🤣 it's a right spooky gaff even worse than Hartwood Cracking video 👍👍👍👍👍

[@coconutislanddrones]

Thanks mate. Aye it's a fair trek and all uphill which I didn't expect. Glad I did it though.

[@bakertam]

@@coconutislanddrones when me and we Jimmy went I made the decision not to drag all 20kg of my gear until I had been and done a recy on the place and even without all my the gear we were knackered if I had karted it all I would have got half way then said AHHH f**k THIS 🤣🤣🤣 but it was well worth a vist

[@coconutislanddrones]

@@bakertam It was a last minute thing for me, just found it on the maps, found a place to park then set off on what I thought would be 20 minute stroll through the woods. How f***ing wrong was I lol. Cracking place but also in a very dangerous state with all those overhanging bricks.

[@tracydoherty9165]

My aunty was a nurse in this hospital when it was opened years ago

[@catherinemtc7795]

I bet that place was beautiful at onetime. So sad to see the state it’s in now.

[@Plochan]

It was a beautiful but it had a shocking reputation. The treatment of its patients by the staff was inhumane to say the least. Out of their beds at 5am, scrubbing floors, you name it. And these were people with learning difficulties. When the hospital closed, the public were asked to take the patients and be paid for caring for them in their homes. Like most asylums, beautiful building, horrendous to live in.

[@tracydoherty9165]

When it closed down I was working in gartloch hospital then an we brought patients into the hospital from Lennox castle

[@michaelsmullen9891]

Great footage!

[@OldGit62]

Great video.

[@mattdragonrider7888]

The building shown was the nurses accommodation ,the hospital itself was a bit further back .

Other than what I'd read online I had no idea of the history of this place

This was actually built for my ancestor, John Lennox Kincaid...so sad to hear the story of what it became.

[@RuthCampbell123]

a sad looking place bet it could tell a few horror stories

[@coconutislanddrones]

Wasn't a pleasant place according to what I've read

[@RuthCampbell123]

[@Plochan]

It had a dreadful reputation, as did Woodilee Mental Asylum. The treatment of inmates with disgusting and inhumane

[@coconutislanddrones]

@@Plochan Reading about it on google it's the kind of place that should have been flattened years ago

[@mm-cv9bn]

Absolutely disgusting the way the Scottish government either sells to develope the castle or sell it with conditions,bad all round.

[@mrtrouttickler]

Had a few fires in there in my time in the fire service
