[Note] * Lugate or Ewes Castle to be written on Plan as it was originally called Ewes Castle, and the above designation will distinguish it from the Castle of Lugate farm house which is now also Called Lugate Castle
[Note] "On Lugate Water there have been two, "one. of them close to the present farm "house was Called "Lugate Castle" "All that remains is a portion of one of the walls now built "into an outhouse. The other of which a great part of the "Square tower yet remains is towards a mile farther up "on the north Side of the water. This is what is now usually Called "Lugate Castle" but appears to have been originally named "Ewes Castle" from the ancient name of the water." Stat. [Statistical] Acct. [Account] 1845
