Inverquharity Castle NO 411 579 NO45NW 3

Inverquharity Castle is an L-plan tower-house probably built in the 15th century. The E wing was demolished before 1884, but a modern wing has been erected upon its site. In 1444 a licence was granted to Alexander Ogilvy of Inverquharity 'to fortifie his house, and put one Iron yet therein'.
