Description

Inverlochy Castle er en ruineret, 1200-tals slot nær Inverlochy og Fort William, Highland, Skotland. Stedet for to slag, slottet forbliver stort set uændret siden dets konstruktion. Det er nu i pleje af Historic Environment Scotland.

Inverlochy Castle blev bygget cirka 1270–1280 af John "den Sorte" Comyn, Lord of Badenoch og Lochaber, og leder af Clan Comyn. Det kan have været bygget på stedet for en tidligere pictisk befæstning og bosættelse, som historikeren Hector Boece omtaler som en "by", der blev ødelagt af vikingerne. Robert the Bruce efterfulgte den skotske trone i 1306. I 1307 fangede og brændte kong Robert slottet. Comyn-familien blev således afsat, og det ruinere slottet var ubebygget i en periode. I 1431 besejrede klanmedlemmer af Alexander MacDonald, Lord of the Isles, kong James I's større hær i det første slag ved Inverlochy, der blev kæmpet tæt ved slottet. Det kom under kontrol af Clan Cameron indtil 1501.
