Remains of the former Riddell House
The gaunt remains of the house, a roofless ruin with substantial tree growth within. The house is on the site of an old peel tower which might date back to the 14th century. The house was extended and changed over the years but burnt down in 1943 to leave this shell standing. Further details can be found on the Canmore website at https://canmore.org.uk/site/55483/riddell

Doorway to the former Riddell House
The doorway on the south side of the ruined house, destroyed by fire in 1943. It appears that a plaque or stone above the door has been removed. The ruin is of course fenced off as it is clearly in a potentially dangerous state.
