Rev. [Reverend] Mr. Whyte Free Ch. [Church] Mins. [Minister] Jarvies "Land of the Lindsays" Ful. [Fullarton's] Gazetteer Old Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] |
037 | A short distance [north west] of the offices, on a small eminence Mr Rattary points out the site of the Castle of Baikie, nothing of it is to be now traced. "The Castle of Baikie was situated in the parish of Airlie, within an hour ride of Clova, and stood on rising ground near the west end of a great moss. It was moated in old times, reached by a draw bridge, and part of the ruins of the Castle and Causeway were visible towards the close of last century. David Lindsay, the son of Margaret Fenton, and Bailiff of the Earls of Crawford for several years, was designed of Lethnot & Bakie, and is the last designed Lindsay of Bakie, and it is likely that the estate had passed from the family in the time of his successor, for the 3rd Lord Glamis had charters of it in 1489."
