Moncur Castle
Image: © stephen samson Taken: 7 Jun 2008
Moncur Castle, built in the late 16th century, was an earlier home of the Kinnaird. Looks to be a Tower House of 4 to 5 floor levels with a stair turret that still leads to some bed chambers on the 4th floor. A grand front door is almost just a pile of rocks. Some fine fireplaces still survive. Very ruinous and overgrown.
