In the 19th century the mound on which the castle had originally stood was levelled and enclosed by a stone balustrade by David Bryce. By 1900 the main garden had been reduced from seven to five terraces but including summerhouses and gardenhouses, a fountain and "the Duke of Hamilton's bath" and was described by Sir Robert Lorimer as "the most romantic little garden in Scotland".Scottish Garden Buildings by Tim Buxbaum p.26
