Ballindalloch Castle
Ballindalloch Castle is a Scottish country house-style castle on the Ballindalloch estate in Banffshire, long held by the Macpherson-Grant family since the 16th century. The building retains its Z-plan core with later 18th- and 19th-century extensions and sits amid parkland through which the rivers Spey and Avon run. It remains a lived family home and is open to visitors in summer.

As it stood in 1878
The shape it held in its prime.
A pale ashlar-stone Z-plan castle with a long low principal range and several cylindrical stair-towers punctuating the roofline; the largest round tower sits near the centre with narrow slit windows and a conical cap, smaller round turrets anchor the wings and crow-stepped gables punctuate the roofline. Slate roofs, multiple chimneys and dormers rise above ivy-clad lower walls. The castle faces a broad trimmed lawn with specimen trees and woodland beyond; the estate rivers run through the grounds.
