Brucklay Castle
Brucklay Castle (a.k.a. Brucklay House) is a 16th-century castle in the Buchan area of Aberdeenshire in Scotland.
The first towers of the castle were erected by James Crawford of Brucklay in the 16th century as a familial residence for the Crawfords, and extended during the 17th century. It was granted by the Clan Irvine to Arthur Dingwall in 1742 when he married into their family. The building's second and third storeys were extended in 1814, possibly by John Smith, and later reconstruction and alterations were carried out in 1849 and 1881 by Mackenzie & Matthews.〔(Scotland's Lost Country Houses: B )〕〔(Dictionary of Scottish Architects - DSA Building/Design Report (November 10, 2013, 11:35 am) )〕
During World War II, prisoners of war were housed in huts on the castle grounds. In 1952 the building was sold to the housebreaker, Charles Brand of Dundee Ltd. Its contents and some architectural features were sold off shortly afterwards. Today the castle is a ruin. Plans to renovate it as a tourist attraction have been proposed.〔http://www.buchanobserver.co.uk/buchannews?articleid=5391917〕
