Ancient Sites of Arran

The Isle of Arran contains a dense concentration of prehistoric and medieval remains. Highlights include the Machrie Moor stone circles, dating back to the Bronze Age, and Neolithic chambered tombs like Carn Ban and the Giant's Graves. The island's later history is represented by the 13th-century ruins of Lochranza Castle, once a royal hunting lodge, and the coastal remains of Kildonan Castle. These sites offer a timeline of human habitation from early agricultural communities to medieval feudal strongholds.
