The people of the locality call the antiquity (the part of the Castle) the "Old Preaching House" from a tradition that the Covenanters used it.

Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym, who believes it to be of considerable age. |

Co [County] Dumbarton & Stirling -- New Kilpatrick Parish
"At Drumry, near Garscadden are some
ruins, said to be those of a chapel, which
there undoubtedly was at that place; but which
had every appearance of being part of a
keep or peel; what now remains being
a patched tower overhanging a steep bank.
At a period considerably remote, the
lands of Drumry belonged to a branch of
Callender family."
New Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account]
"At Drumry, near Garscadden, are the ruins of a Chapel
which seems to have been in existence before 1746."
Orig. Par. Scot. [Origines Parochiales Scotiae]
Transcriber's notes
The final reference to the chapel (castle) ".. seems to have been in existence before 1746" should probably be 1476 from the original.
