關於
Baltersan Castle is a ruined L-plan tower house near Maybole in South Ayrshire, Scotland. It stands close to Crossraguel Abbey, on the site of an earlier house associated with the Kennedy family of Carrick. The present tower was begun in 1584 for John Kennedy of Pennyglen and his wife Margaret Cathcart. It was abandoned about the middle of the 18th century and has since stood as a ruin.
Baltersan was first listed as a Category B building in 1971 and was upgraded to Category A in 1995. It is recorded on the Buildings at Risk Register for Scotland.
