More about this scene

Standing between Kilwinning and Irvine, the castle became famous in 1839 as the venue for a medieval tournament. Though not the first tournament to be held in Europe during the 19th century, it was the first and last to be held in the UK during the Gothic revival. In full armour, knights rode down the lists, trying to unhorse one another with lances. The castle is now a ruin.
