According to Mr. Shaw in his history of the Province of Moray, when the Earl of March defeated and killed the Earl of Athol at Kilblair in 1335 and raised the Seige of Kildrummie Castle, The Earl of Athol's lady fled to the Castle of Lochindorb, Sir Alexander Gordon laid seige to it, but next year he was obliged to raise the Seige. The Castle and adjacent grounds belong to the Earl of Seafield,
