Claypotts Castle is one of my favourite buildings. You can see it from the road at the roundabout at the back of Broughty Ferry, Dundee. The castle dates from the 1500s and has unusual little house like structures instead of turrets on top. I am not sure if this is original or if any other castles have this? Perhaps someone can tell me.
There are four interesting castles to visit in Dundee: Claypotts, Broughty Castle, Mains and Dudhope. Many people imagine Dundee is just a grimy ex industrial sprawl, but the castles of the city tell a different story.
