What is recorded here

Abergairn Castle is a ruined hunting lodge in Aberdeenshire, built around 1614 for Keillar, now reduced to foundations and one circular tower. The small structure stood three or four storeys high, large enough for a few rooms and a garret, but time and neglect took most of it. Today the remains are re-pointed and preserved as a memorial, marking the place where Keillar once hunted and lived.
