The Haunted Tower of Rait Castle

The story of Rait Castle begins with a feud between two families, the Macintoshes and the Cummings. One put in place by the Edward I to Impose English rule over the land and the other a loyal Highland clan. The Cummings however weren't a unified family and the daughter betrayed her dad (the chief) which ended in both of their deaths.

Legend has it that the daughter of the clan still haunts the castles tower today. Rait Castle is a Hall House style castle and Is not a drystone as the castle has 13th century mortar and the outer frame of the castle is absolutely solid. Internally most of the castle would of been made out of wood which is why only the outer walls remain along with the haunted tower.
