Seen from the viewpoint on Suie Hill, with the aid of a telephoto lens. Parts of it date from the 16th or 17th century, but it has been extensively altered and extended in the ensuing centuries. It was a seat of the Gordons. It is Category B listed, but the citation http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB2911 is unusually lacking in information. However the listings at https://canmore.org.uk/site/75332/knockespock-house and https://online.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/smrpub/master/detail.aspx?tab=main&refno=NJ52SW0017 are more enlightening.
