Remains of a small 3 storey towerhouse, built on an L-plan with a turnpike stair in the re-entrant angle. An inset panel over the door reads "16 Clu(nie) 66 Crichto(un)e". (Historic Scotland)

The castle was built by George Crichton of Cluny just after his marriage to the daughter of Robert Douglas of Tilquhillie.
