Kilbryde Castle, a fine old castle in Dunblane parish, Perthshire, picturesquely seated on the right bank of Ardoch Burn, 3 miles NW of Dunblane town. Dating from 1460, it was long the residence of the Earls of Menteith, and, with its barony, was acquired in 1669 by Sir Colin Campbell of Aberuchill. His fifth descendant, Sir James Campbell, ninth Bart. since 1627 (b. 1818; suc. 1824), holds 5037 acres in the shire, valued at £1949 per annum.—Ord. Sur., sh. 39, 1869. Kilbucho. See Broughton.
