The Castle of St John - A massive stone house built around 1510 for the Adair family. This is one of the most powerful families in Wigtownshire. Over the years, the Castle has been a home, a troop base (1678-1820), a Victorian jail (1820) and now a visitor centre. Here people can find out about a medieval tower house, a Victorian imprisonment, and life in the Castle during the last 500 years. There are spectacular views of Stranraer and Loch Ryan from the roof of the Castle.
