Kilravock Castle has been the home of the Clan Rose Chief since it was first constructed in about 1460. Located between Inverness and Nairn, the castle includes a tower house and several later additions. In 1984, the current chief signed over the estate to a Christian Trust Fund.  However, the castle has recently been put up for sale. The current Chief David Rose and his daughters Genevieve Rose and Katharen Quirk are working with a group of community leaders toward acquiring the funds to purchase the castle and reopen it for public use. Clan Rose International has set up a donation fund, the Kilravock Heritage Fund.
