Monzie Castle

Margaret Scott, heiress of Monzie, deeded three-quarters of the lands in 1613 to her son, James Graeme, who later built a house on the property.

[2] The house has a marriage lintel (in fact in this instance a pediment) dating from around 1635 bearing the figure of a man with a moustache holding corn in one hand and a bible in the other flanked by the letters M, I and G. M was Marjory the wife of James Graeme (IG).

His descendant, General Alexander Campbell, MP, enlarged the house by adding a much larger castellated building on its east side in 1797–1800 that was designed by John Patterson.

The interior of the addition was gutted by a fire in 1908 and rebuilt by Sir Robert Lorimer over the next four years in his own style.

A large fireplace on the ground floor has a swagged lintel carved with a heraldic panel and the date 1634.
