   Probably in 1326 Bruce began building his house, which was not described as a castle or palace but as a “manerium” or “manororium”, probably a manor house. The house is described as being single storey and having a hall, queen’s chamber, chapel, kitchen and larder as well as an apartment for the king.

   A common belief at the start of the twentieth century was that the King's Cardross residence had been near Castle Hill, a knoll that gives the Castlehill area of Dumbarton its name. For that reason, a flagstaff commemorating Robert the Bruce was erected near there in 1928.

   Where was Cardross castle occupied in 1326?

   • That naval arrangement effectively rules out the village of Cardross and Brucehill and Castlehill in the Cunninghame Graham Memorial Park – actually named after Cardross Castle which may have stood there for many decades – and means that we can look at three possible locations for the house which Bruce occupied from 1326 onwards.
