New Statistical Acct. [Account] 011 This Castle was built by John Urquhart, of Craigfintry, which was the proper name of the Barony, early in the Seventeenth Century, between 1604 and 1607. The founder, who was also ancestor of the Urquharts, of Meldrum and Byth, was a gentleman of Some note in the trouble-Some times in which he lived, and is mentioned repeatedly by different historians. He twice had gardianship of the elder branches of his Family, during the Minorities of his nephew, and grand-nephew, the celebrated Sir Thomas Urquhart, and was generally Known by the name of the Tutor of Cromarty, As Such he is in the list of Chiefs and heads of Families, who were ordered to find Security for the good Conduct of their respective Clans, by a act of Parliament, in 1587 Over [Continued on page 104]

OS1/1/50/104 CRAIGSTON CASTLE Craigston Castle Copied from an old Writing obtained from Craigston Castle Dr. [Doctor] Donald Bogside Valuation Roll 1867 & 8 G Moir Forester Craigston Johnston's Map of Aberdeenshire. New Statistical Acct. [Account] 011 [Continued from page 103] He died at Craigston Castle November 6th 1631 and was buried in the place of interment for the Family, in the church of King Edward, in this Country, There are few old houses in the north of Scotland that unite So much Comfort with that intricacy, or rather disregard of plan, which characterised the Style of building in use, when it was erected "Inscription on the Wall," "foundit the fourtene of March one thousand sex-houn four yeiris and endit the 8th of December 1607 - " Vide Pratts Buchan. P. [Page] 205" Originally the Castle consisted of a central Arch and two wings - subsequently the two wings were connected by an Arch, the upper range of the building being thus converted into a complete square. Sir Andrew Leith Hay, in his Castles of Aberdeenshire says; The front of the lofty arch is adorned by grotesque effigies bearing crowns, or grasping warlike or musical instruments with a richly carved pediment of red sand stone. The inside of the Castle is remarkable for a spacious hall, now converted into a handsome drawing room, containing numerous specimens of curiously carved oak panelling of the same age as the building and the remains of its original decorations. These present the effigies of a very miscellaneous assemblage of heroes, Kings evangelists, and cardinal virtues. The Castle now belongs to Pollard Urquhart Esqr.
