About

Cornal Tower is the ruins of a tower house located near Moffat, Dumfries-shire, Scotland. Alternative names are Polcornare, Cornal Burn, or Logan. The ruins are located on a plateau and the grounds consisted of five farms.

The place was said to be a hunting lodge for Scottish kings. In the 15th century, the land was given to the Carruthers family of Mousewald. Then it was given to Johnstone of Coreheard.
