Castle of Findon[a] was a castle located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
Located overlooking Gamrie Bay, are the earth mound remains of the castle. The castle was constructed upon a hillfort, that had been constructed to defend the area from Viking raids. The castle was held by the Troup family in the 14th century and passed to the Gardyne family.[1][2]
