Perched on a hill in the heart of Greater Pollok, Crookston Castle stands as a rare survivor of Scotland's medieval past. The Castle we see today was built in the 12th century by the powerful Stewart family, who built on the hill top first fortified by Robert Croc, a Norman knight in the service of David I.
In 1931 it became the first property in the care of the National Trust for Scotland, before management was transferred to the Government in the 1960's Today it is managed by Historic Environment Scotland.
Much about the castle's history is still unknown, the Friends of Crookston Castle are working on a range of archaeological projects that aim to uncover the lost history of the site while ensuring it remains a vibrant asset at the heart of community life https:// forms.gle/UjgwnsiooPWEXaRD6
