Dalnair Castle, also known as Dalnair House, is a Scottish baronial castle. It was built for a Glaswegian merchant named Thomas Brown around 1884 on the site of the former much smaller Endrickbank House.
The property survived a major fire that engulfed it in 1917. At the time of the fire the building belonged to Henry Christie, a calico printer, who owned it until the 1940s.
The castle then passed into the hands of the Glasgow Western Hospital Board and it was used as a nurses' home until Killearn Hospital closed in 1972 For much of the 1970s it was a training and conference centre for British Steel. On 2000, it became a nursing home before becoming vacant and at risk of becoming a ruin.
In 2016 the FM Group, a Scottish property developer, bought the property and is refurbishing the baronial castle into luxury apartments. The plans also include construction work in the estate surrounding the castle, where a number of family homes have and continue to be built.
