Portencross Castle Portencross Castle , also known historically as Portincross Castle , is situated in Portencross , on the west coast of Scotland , about 3 km from West Kilbride . The site has been fortified since the 13th Century . The present building is thought to date from the 14th Century and later , when the castle was moved from the nearby Auld Hill to its present site overlooking the harbour . The castle was one of the buildings featured in the BBC television series " Restoration " and is the subject of efforts by a local community group to secure its future . History . In the castle ' s earliest days , it was known as " Arneil " ( alternatively spelled " Arnele " or " Ardneil " ) , and it stood atop Auld Hill . Portencross is believed by some to have been a royal residence , as it is known that several charters of the first two Stuart kings were signed at the castle . The castle is also believed to be the last mainland resting place for many former Scottish kings . Between the times of Cináed mac Ailpín ( 810 - 858 ) through to the reign of Máel Coluim mac Donnchada ( 1030 / 38 - 1093 ) , the bodies of former kings were taken by road from the east of Scotland , and from Portencross they were ferried to Iona where they would be buried . The castle was rebuilt in the 14th century , not on Auld Hill , but instead on a rock promontory at the bottom of the hill , overlooking the Firth of Clyde . From this location , Robert II signed several more Royal Charters , and the castle remained occupied until the roof was blown off during a violent storm in 1739 . The castle walls still remain in place today , and the building has recently been opened to the public , with visitors able to access a ground floor room , the main hall , and the roof .
