Megginch Castle is a 16th century centre portion, probably 'L' shaped, with later 19th century additions on the south and NE sides. The 19th century addition on the south bears an armorial panel with the date 1820. The inscribed stone is now badly weathered, only the date 1575 being clear. On the north side of the castle, the 16th century styling is evident in two small wing turrets with a cap-house in between.
An ornate dovecot in the steading at NO 2414 2465 (NO22SW 9) is probably modern.
