Castle Leod (8)
Originally, there were no corner turrets, the parapets on each of the three gables were finished with open-rounds, as can still be seen on the south facing gable over to the right.  When the 1616 extension was built in the re-entrant, with a corner-turret on the angle nearest the camera, the open-round on the near end of the parapet on the west facing gable (to the left above) was mostly absorbed into the walls, while the one at the further end of this parapet was replaced with a full turret and conical roof and is now accessible from inside, but not from the parapet.
