Airlie Castle (12 of 12)
The long 'new' mansion built along the line of the old north curtain wall, was built by the 9th Earl between 1792 and 1793.  It is said to have incorporated the parts of the Castle that were still standing, however Canmore states that &quot;The buildings on the north are entirely modern, and no early masonry was noted in their walls.&quot;  So there!  

Used periodically as a dower house for widowed dowager-countesses, it remains the property of the Earls of Airlie.
