From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
History
The castle, built around 1580,[2] was a property of the Sinclairs, of whom John Forbes was accused of murder in 1605. Corsindae Castle is still lived in.[1] There have been several additions, including one thought to be by Lord Braco in 1726, up to 1840.[2]
Structure
Corsindae House comprises a L-plan tower house with three storeys and an attic. In the re-entrant angle is a round stair tower. A large mansion has been added, so that the whole is now U-plan. All is harled and whitewashed. There is a vaulted basement.[1]
