A neat little specimen of vernacular architecture gives a flavour of 17th-century Elgin. The tower is the only surviving portion of a house built by Andrew Leslie of Glen of Rothes, merchant and magistrate of the town. It was built in 1634 and remodelled some time after 1859 in the Scottish baronial style.
