Castle of Daugh (NR)
OS 6" map, Aberdeenshire, 2nd ed., (1902)
The Manor house of Daach stood where the farm houses now stand.
J Pirie 1906.
The Castle of the Daach: No vestige of the building now remains, but the tenant points out the sites of the garden and the fish-pond. Access to the castle was probably from the south.
Foundations of a building, said to be a chapel are visible.
J A Cameron 1849.
No traces of either the castle, chapel, garden or fishpond were found. Daugh farm is now a ruin.
Visited by OS (NKB) 4 February 1964.
