It is a category A listed building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Castle of Park )〕 ==History== The castle was begun in 1590 for Thomas Hay, the son of one of the Commendators of Glenluce Abbey, and his wife Jonet MakDouel.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Glenluce, Castle of Park )〕 It was completed by 1599. The building was extended in the 18th century,〔 and was used by the Hay family until Sir John Dalrymple-Hay sold the Park estate in 1875;〔 it was then left uninhabited. A program of restoration was carried out in the 1950s and 1960s by the Ministry of Public Buildings and Works, including removal of the 18th-century wings.〔 In the 1980s, additional work was done by the Landmark Trust.〔 The building is now maintained using income from its use as holiday accommodation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About the Landmark Trust )〕 At various times the building has also been known as "Park Hay", "The Park O' Luce", "Park Castle" and "Park House".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Castle of Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
