Under going a make over

The present castle was built in the 16th century on the site of an older 14th century castle. It was positioned at a cross road to help the local lords control the marauders. You can't enter the castle any more, but you run right past.

Just a short walk south from the beach car park and you can see the Red Castle clearly in view. The 15th century castle is in disrepair and closer access is fenced off due to safety concerns as the slopes it occupies are slowly eroding away.

There has been a castle here since the 14th century, but the current Invermark Castle is from the 16th century. It's an oblong tower that stands at the end of the Glen Esk Road at the start of the gravel track up to Loch Lee. The castle was abandoned in 1803 and is now partially ruined. You can go up to the base but there is no access inside.

Castle ruin on the bank of the River Lunan just above the beach.

The castle was originally built by David Lyon, a wealthy conservative MP for use as a sporting lodge. It was left abandoned for many years after its previous owner had little interest in the property. It was recently bought and is undergoing renovation.
