By the beginning of the 16th century, there were five main
MacGregor geographical districts, in valleys (Glens): Glen Dochart, Glen Orchy, Glen
Lyon, Glen Strae, and Glen Gyle. There were also adjacent areas where the Gregor
clan was prevalent.

Lanrick Castle, known also as "MacGregor House"served as the seat of the
Clan Gregor until 1830. It was illegally demolished by a real estate developer in
2002. The Stirling Municipal authorities did nothing to prevent it, or to condemn
this heinous crime.
