'''Castle Island''' ({{lang-gd|Eilean a' Chaisteil}}) or '''Allimturrail'''<ref name="ReferenceA">[http://www.humberts-leisure.com/uploads/media/Little_Cumbrae.pdf "The Island of Little Cumbrae"] (pdf) Humberts Leisure. Retrieved 15 Sept 2011.</ref> is a small [[tidal island]], lying off the east coast of [[Little Cumbrae]], and to the west of Trail Island, in the [[Firth of Clyde]]. It is joined to Little Cumbrae at low tide.<br />
<br />
The [[Little Cumbrae Castle|castle]] which gives the island its name, was built in 1527, and was destroyed by [[Oliver Cromwell|Cromwellian]] forces in 1650. It is a square keep, and is said to have been built originally to prevent deer poaching.<ref name=Smith>{{Haswell-Smith}}</ref><br />
