OS 6" map, (1959)

Keltie is a small laird's house, the date 1600 over the doorway agreeing with the general style, but possibly incorporating earlier work. It is an L-shaped building with an unusual turret corbelled out on the east gable with five shot-holes. There are other shot-holes elsewhere and a stout iron grille over a first-floor window.

It is in excellent condition.

N Tranter 1963.

Keltie Castle is as described by Tranter. The exact date of construction was not established.

Visited by OS (WDJ) 8 November 1965.
