Castramont, a mansion in Girthon parish, Kirkcudbrightshire, on the left bank of the Fleet, 3 miles N by W of Gatehouse. It stands, embosomed by trees, at the western base of conical Doon Hill, which took its name from a native fort on its summit, as that of Castramont is derived from a Roman camp at its foot.
