A photograph showing the southern elevation of Kellie Castle, or Kelly Castle, near Arbirlot and Arbroath in Angus. The castle sits in a wooded area next to a small river call the Elliot Water.

Historic Environment Scotland's Canmore website, states his that this historic tower house, also once known as Auchterlony, was "the seat of the Elliot family from the 14th to the 17th centuries but the building itself appears to date from the late 15th century at the earliest. After standing in ruins for some time it was restored in the mid-19th century and is still occupied."

This image likely dates from the 1970s. It comes from a collection of slides donated to Aberdeen City Libraries by Aberdeen City Council's publicity department.
