Dundarg Castle

Dundarg Castle is a two-storey, castellated house built between 1937 and 1938, primarily using re-used materials, including masonry from the former Aberdour Free Church and various interior fittings from that site and others. The exterior features dark whinstone rubble with extensive use of tooled grey granite dressings.

The south elevation is asymmetrical and wide, consisting of three bays with a recessed central block that has a Tudor arched entrance featuring a panelled door and a re-used coat of arms above. To the right, there is an advanced gabled bay with two ground floor and two first floor windows. The western bay is formed by the south elevation of a two-storey square tower, which includes a southeast angle bartizan at the first floor level that incorporates a chimney. The tower and the central portion of the south elevation have crenellated wallheads.

The principal entrance is located in the west gable, featuring a pointed-headed doorway with a double-leaf panelled door set within a shallow gabled doorpiece, which has been reconstructed from the Free Church. The building has regular fenestration, with small windows on the asymmetrical north elevation. Most first floor windows are pointed-headed and feature 4- and 12-pane glazing. The roof is slate with a tiled ridge, and there is a coped centre stack. An arched carriage entrance leads to the forecourt west of the tower, and a central bellcote with a bell connects the house to a rubble screen wall.

Inside, the entrance hall, located at the base of the tower, features an RAF crest above the fireplace and a long stair window with re-used stained glass that includes a small RAF crest. The panelled passage and drawing room have panelling, door frames, and panelled doors that have been re-used from other locations. The drawing room includes a granite chimneypiece with scroll balusters supporting the mantel shelf and a carved Tudor style over-mantel. There is extensive re-use of wooden fittings upstairs, including what appears to be medieval cresting on the landing balustrade, along with further re-used doors, door frames, and chimneypieces with over-mantels.
