022.05 The remains of an old castle supposed to have been erected about the 12th century, and which from its position on the south side of the Fintry Hills, must have been a place of great strength. Very little information can be obtained regarding it, and its present appearance affords none, as only a small part of the foundation remains.
It is supposed to have been surrounded by a fosse, and the appearance of the ground helps to bear out that supposition. It was inhabited by the Grahams of Fintry.
Property of the Duke of Montrose, Buchanan House.
