A 14th-century fortified tower house situated in the village of Barnes, Scotland, featuring a unique blend of medieval architecture and scenic surroundings. The castle's rugged stone walls and towers rise dramatically from the rolling hills, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
Very difficult to get to across fields and deeply rutted farm tracks. A ruin with no information and no facilities seemed unsafe. Lovely views across open farmland in the middle of nowhere
It's called Barneys mains. I grew up in athelstaneford the wee village down the road . No much to see really
Interesting unfinished castle from the 16th century
Popped in for a look whilst cycling by. It must have been the Premier Inn of its day
Lovely castle even if Sauron wanted to attack me with a huge sword, I recommend
Never finished castle ruins, great walk, amazing view, expect mud. Lots of mud.
