    (NT 3443 6145) Newbyres Castle (NR) (rems of)

    OS 6" map (1967)

    The Object Name Book of the Ordnance Survey describes 'Newbyres Castle (in ruins)' as ' A very old building of a rectangular form on the West side of Gorebridge. There is no person in the neighbourhood that can give any information respecting when, or by whom it was erected'

    Name Book 1852

    Newbyres Castle, a mid-16th century tower, is in an unsound, ruinous condition. On plan, it has been an L-shaped building, a main block 32 1/2' NNE-SSW by 24', with the wing, at the S angle, measuring 15 1/4' by 5'. Only the foundations of the latter remain. The walls of the main block facing N and W are complete to the wall-head, but the others are fragmentary.

    Vague foundations of outbuildings may be traced under the turf to N and S of the tower. The site occupied by the tower is roughly triangular, naturally defended by deeply worn water-courses; there appears to have been a courtyard wall.

    RCAHMS 1929, visited 1915

    The NE corner of the tower, standing 4.0m high, and an adjacent mound of overgrown rubble are all that remain of Newbyres Castle.

    Visited by OS (BS) 28 October 1975.
