History
Moy Castle was built in the 15th century by Hector Reaganach Maclean, 1st Laird of Lochbuie, brother of Lachlan Lubanach Maclean of Duart. It has a three level tower with a garret. The ground floor contains a well. It was captured from the Macleans of Lochbuie by Clan Campbell, but later returned to the Maclaines. It was abandoned in 1752 when a new house was built.[1]
It was used for scenes in Powell and Pressburger's 1945 film I Know Where I'm Going!, and a group of 40 fans visited to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the film's release in 2005.[2][3]
