Huntly Castle ruins

The construction of present day Huntly castle started in 1501 after the previous structure from the 12th C burned down. In a 1597 restoration the facade of the main block was carved with the names and titles of the marquess George Gordon and his wife, Henrietta Stewart, which can be seen near the top of the ruin in this photo. The castle played an important role in Scottish history and is a Scheduled Monument.
