As it stood in 1855

The shape it held in its prime.

A Z-plan, three- to four-storey stone house with a rectangular main block and round corbelled corner towers; random rubble walls originally harled contrast with finely carved blue freestone quoins, door and window surrounds. Steep pitched slate roofs with tall chimneys and small dormer openings punctuate the roofline. The castle sits at the foot of a wooded Perthshire slope with open pasture in front and a large rounded lifting stone set near the entrance.
