Asliesk Castle is a ruined 16th-century castle about 7 miles (11 km) west of Elgin, Moray, Scotland, near Alves and Monoughty Woods at Asliesk.[1]

History

The property was owned by the Innes or Brodie families.[2]

Structure

Asliesk Castle was an L-plan castle, which had a corbelled-out stair tower, and bartizans.[1] The foundations can be traced for some metres. The old well of the castle is in the farm-square nearby. A stone with coat of arms bearing date 1587 is in a gable.[2]
