What is recorded here

Dundeugh Castle is a ruined medieval Gordon stronghold at the southern end of Kendoon reservoir, built in the 16th century on the site of an earlier 13th century castle. Its broken L-shaped walls and separate uncertain building lie hidden in woodland at the foot of Dundeugh hill, preserving a borderland house where people may have climbed, guarded or simply lived beside water. The castle has surrendered most of its shape to time, leaving only enough stone to suggest rooms, a stair and the patience of a family estate.
