Descriptive Gazetteer Entry for Craiglockhart

Craiglockhart, an ancient baronial fortalice in Lanark parish, Lanarkshire, on the right bank of Mouse Water, opposite Jerviswood. It probably was erected by some remote ancestor of the Lockharts of Lee; but it figures very slightly in either records or tradition; and it now is a ruined, lofty, picturesque tower.
