What is the Clan Armstrong Connection to Gilnockie Tower?
Set in the rugged beauty of the borders landscape of Liddesdale, Gilnockie Tower is a lasting legacy and holds a special place in the story of the Armstrongs. This tower, constructed in 1518, stands as a testament to the Armstrongs' prominence and power. Despite having been burnt by the English shortly after its construction, the tower continued to exhibit defiance and resilience, much like the Armstrongs themselves.
Located a few miles north of Canonbie in Dumfriesshire, the tower's architecture is typical of the period, designed for defense with sturdy stone walls and minimal windows. It wasn’t just a fortress but also a home for the Armstrongs. Among those who resided here was the infamous Johnnie Armstrong of Gilnockie, whose daring deeds painted the Armstrongs in vivid colors in the pages of history.
Today, Gilnockie Tower (also known as the Hollows Tower) has been reroofed and restored and houses the Clan Armstrong Centre. It remains a key focal point for those seeking to understand the Armstrongs’ history.
If you're considering a landscape photograph of Scotland, which celebrates your connection to Clan Armstrong, this print of Gilnockie Tower provides a beautiful view that immerses you in a tranquil scene. The beauty of the tower's surroundings make for a stunning photographic subject.
Where is Gilnockie Tower?
