What is recorded here
Glenquiech is a possible medieval castle in Tannadice, Angus, once claimed as a seat for the Earls of Buchan. George Cumming wrote in 1843 that no vestiges remained above ground, yet aerial photography from 1949 revealed rectangular and circular cropmarks at the site. The castle may have vanished completely, leaving only faint shadows in the soil and a name preserved in memory.
