Gight Castle

Methlick Aberdeenshire

Gight Castle built in 1560, the stronghold of the lawless "Gordons", prophesied to ruin by Thomas the Rhymer - "when the herons leave the tree, The lairds o Gight shall landless be". Looks like he got this one correct !.

It must be terrific to have such ready access to olden times and historical artifacts. Did you get a closer look at this old structure?
