Inchdrewer Castle

Inchdrewer Castle stands on high ground looking out over Banff to the North Sea. It is a fine house, now fallen on sad days. Like most Scottish castles, it has seen its share of incidents! Lord Banff was murdered here by his own servants (probably having earned it!), who in an attempt to hide their crime, torched the castle. It remained a ruin for a long time but has undergone some half-hearted restoration.
