Cromarty Castle NH 792 671 NH76NE 2
The first Cromarty castle was probably built in the 13th century by the Mowats, sheriffs of Cromarty; after 1470 it was replaced by a tower-house which was built by the Urquharts. This latter building was demolished in 1772 during the construction of the present listed mansion, Cromarty House (NH 792 670).
