010 This is a plain modern building which was built since the battle of Culloden, It is two stories high slated, and in good order, "Beaufort Castle, the residence of the Right Hon Lord Lovat, is a large and commodious but very plain building, having been originally intended only as a residence for the Government factor during the time that the Lovat Estate lay under forfeiture. It stands partly on the site of the old Fortress of Beaufort. It is said that the present is the 12th edifice which has been erected on the same site, and indeed, a more eligible and delightful site could not be pitched upon for the chieftains residence" See Statistical Account
