Inverquharity

Inverquharity is a Roman fortlet in Scotland, close to the Highland Line about 5 miles north of Kirriemuir, Angus. Although very little archaeological work has taken place, it is assumed that Inverquharity forms part of the Roman occupation during the Flavian period; this would mean it was constructed sometime between 70 and 86 CE. It would thus form part of the series of Strathmore forts, which include Inchtuthil, Cargill I and II, Cardean and Stracathro.

Located at 56.7094, -2.96306 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.

Inverquharity Castle

Inverquharity Castle is a 15th-century tower house in Angus, Scotland. It lies around 4.5 kilometres north-east of Kirriemuir, on the south bank of the River North Esk. The lands of Inverquharity came to the Ogilvie family around 1420. The castle was first constructed as a rectangular tower in the 1440s, by Alexander Ogilvie, 2nd Lord Inverquharity. In the 16th century a wing was added to form a four-storey L-plan castle.

Located at 56.7094, -2.96333 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
