Gordon Castle
Gordon Castle is a large classical country house near Fochabers in Moray, Scotland, built around and incorporating an earlier medieval tower called the Bog o’ Gight. Rebuilt on a monumental Neoclassical scale in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the south front extended nearly 173 metres with a central high tower and flanking pavilions. Much of the central block was demolished in the 1950s; the east wing and medieval tower survive today alongside the restored Walled Garden.

As it stood in 1823
The shape it held in its prime.
A vast white freestone south façade stretches in a long straight line, dominated at its centre by a taller, six-storey medieval tower rising above a four-storey central block; two-storey pavilion wings and lower single‑storey returns step out to either side. The exterior is finished with a rich cornice and a battlemented parapet, with tall arched windows to the pavilions. The house sits behind broad lawns and specimen trees on the banks of the River Spey, with the Walled Garden nearby.
