Full Description
Remains of Tullos House, probably a 16th century Laird's house. The house was originally on an L-plan, although the north wing has been demolished. The existing rectangular remains are of little architectural merit. They measure 18.5m by 6m, the walls circa 1m thick, standing to a mazimum height of 4.5m at the south gable. Part of a door jamb is still visible in the former re-entrant angle on the northwest. Chamfered openings are grooved for glass and socketed for iron bars. The interior is full of debris.
Period Notes
N wing pulled down in 1943.
