Castleton of Kincardine, Kincardineshire

Kincardine

Kincardine was a burgh at the northern edge of the Howe o' the Mearns beneath Strathfinella Hill in Kincardineshire, and the place from which the county takes its name.

All that remains of the old burgh today is a hamlet gathered around the ruins of the castle, known as Castleton of Kincardine. It is found north-east of Fettercairn, close to Mill of Kincardine, which is half a mile to the north and across the burn. (Read more)
