Castle contents coming to auction in our October sale
Orchil Castle, a magnificent Category B Listed, Scots Baronial residence near Braco, was commissioned in 1867 by Rev John McDougall of Dundee and designed by renowned architect Andrew Heiton Junior, the property is widely regarded as one of Heiton’s most ambitious and successful country house projects. The estate later came under the ownership of Rev Thomas Crawford in 1907. Though the castle’s grandeur was twice threatened by major fires—in 1917 and again in 1967, which destroyed the roof—the property survived and retained much of its character. The house has experienced many colourful chapters throughout its history. In the 1920s, Orchil Castle hosted dignitaries including the Duke of York, the future King George VI, and George, Duke of Kent. During WWII, Colonel Dawson, then the owner, kept watch for enemy aircraft from the tower. After the war, shifting fortunes saw the estate briefly function as a foster home, and later, a local farmer allowed his sheep and pigs to roam splendid panelled rooms before restoration began in earnest.
