For Balnagown Castle (NH 76260 75208) and associated buildings, see NH77NE 1.00.

A late medieval L-plan tower, reconstructed in the 17th century, may conceivably by incorporated in the western portion of Balnagown Castle; the tower house is illustrated in the background of a 17th-century child portrait (National Galleries of Scotland 8814), but the existing mansion appears to be very largely of 19th century character. However, the detailed architectural history of Balnagown has yet to be fully investigated.
