Knockhall Castle
Knockhall Castle is an historic Scottish castle near to Newburgh, Aberdeenshire. It was built by Lord Sinclair of Newburgh in 1565. It was purchased by Clan Udny, who moved into the castle in 1634. The building was damaged in 1639 when taken by the Earl Marischal for the Covenanters, but was later returned to Udny hands. The Clan remained in the castle until 1734, when an accidental fire gutted the building and the Clan moved back to their other property, Udny Castle. The castle remains a ruin to this day. This came from Wikipedia and I am not so sure of the accuracy of Clan Udny.
Nevertheless liked this photo which shows the old, with the newer and the washing - life in all its glory. I didn't take this photo - Andrew did but it was with my camera!!
