The Clan Hunter Association was founded in 1970 by the late 29th Laird
Neil Hunter of Hunterston and his eldest son, Charles Hunter of
Hunterston, younger. The aim of the Association is to provide a focal
point for the activities of all the members world-wide.
Hunterston Castle provides the perfect centre for the Clansfolk.
Restoration earlier this century has ensured the Castle is in an excellent
stage of preservation while retaining most of its original features. Any
member may visit the Castle by arrangement.
Clan Gatherings are held every three years at Hunterston to strengthen the
traditions of the clan and foster a sense of togetherness. The Association
is also represented at Highland Gatherings in North America, Canada, South
Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Several national associations publish
their own newsletter
