Auchindoun Castle

The site is surroudned by a gated fence, and three is the foundation of a tower as you approach the castle. We think this was the extend of the outer bailey, a gatehouse or watchtower. You can see the remains of the stone walls that would have surrounded the castle, looking as if they've simply sunk into the ground.
