A miserable wet day with nothing to do, so Smellycat and myself set of in search of Kirktonhill Tower. After a few wrong turns and a consultation with a near-by resident we were on the the right track. I expected to find an old tower but when we got there were surprised to discover that the place was being' done up' with new windows and a nice new door, which was a bit disappointing, as it seemed to take the character out of the place. Hey ho.

Nice wee tower, I'm assuming it was a Folly?

I know what you mean about the new fixtures, but at least it means someone's taking the time and money to save the place, even if the door is a questionable choice :)
 
Hi there can you please tell me where you parked to walk to the tower. I like a really good walk so it's OK if it was miles away x

If you park in the village of Marykirk (not Myrekirk...) then walk approx one mile north eastwards along a minor road, the tower's in woodland to the left/ inland side.
