Kinnettles Castle, Scotland - A View From Above - EagleVisionDundee

In the early 14th century, King Robert III granted Alexander Strachan a tract of land in Forfar which went on to become the Kinettles baronial estate. A dated stone situated opposite the castle's dovecot suggests that a modest two-story house occupied the site from 1678. In the 16th century ownership of the land was passed to the Lindsays who held it for 200 years before it was passed on to Sir Thomas Moodie, the then Provost of Dundee. A survey carried out in 1791 by the Reverend David Ferney also refers to the "manor house" at Kinnettles, making mention of the fact that it is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the area.[] The property again traded hands in the 17th century, when it was bought by the Bower family.
