Moy Castle on the beach at Lochbuie is the ancient home of Clan Maclaine. Built in the 15th century it was a three storey tower with a garrett and a well on the ground floor. It was abandoned in 1752 when Lochbuie house was built.
You can visit and walk around the tower but there is no public access inside.
