Culsalmond was a 16th-century castle about 9.5 miles (15.3 km) south east of Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, near the river Ury.[1]

History

The castle is thought to have been a property of the Gordons.[1] The view that it existed by 1591 but was unroofed in 1594 is disputed.[2]

Structure

The property may well have been at the site of Newton House, a house with four stories and an attic, which dates from the late 17th century.[1] However, there is no trace of remains.[2]
