Affleck Tower is an L-plan tower that is
fairly plain on the outside, and well-designeed as a defensive castle.
It has a pair of battlemented cap-houses and gun-ports on the lower levels,
but the interior is four/five stories of fine living in the tower and "L"
respectively. |

The castle was built about 1460 near Dundee in Tayside, probably by
the Auchinleks, who were the hereditary armour-bearers to the powerful
Clan Lindsay, the Earls of Balcarres. The castle is kept up beautifully,
but is no longer open to the public due to the inconsiderate behavior of
some past visitors. |
