Description
As indicated by an inscription near the Tolquhon Castle gatehouse, William Forbes extended the 14th C medieval tower house (3mi/5km south of Haddo House) into a mansion between 1584 and 1589. Two huge round towers flank the tower house with its portal and heraldic panels. The inner courtyard and living accommodation lie ahead beyond the entrance hall.
