| Fetteresso Castle | 017.02 | [continued from page 230] quadrangle, and was adorned by eight slender towers, one of which only now remains. The principal entrance was at what is now the back of the edifice, where, at a subsequent period a lobby and Staircase were added, by which the doors, which still exist were excluded from exterior view. On the lintel of one of these are the arms of the Earl Marischal with the date 1671, and over a second door on a similar stone, are the initials of the Earl and his second wife the Countess Anne, thus EWM / CAM. It was at the former of these doors that the Chevalier de St George was proclaimed King of Great Britain as James VIII on his arrival from France in 1715."
