Old Photograph Cullen House Castle Moray Scotland

Old photograph of Cullen House Castle, Moray, Scotland. The Castle of Cullen House is reputed to have been built on the site of an old monastery, and dates from before the 13th Century AD. It has an association with the rising of Bonnie Prince Charlie when in 1746 Prince Charlie's army on the march from Aberdeen to Culloden sacked it and many servants were murdered. The principal part of Cullen House was built about 1543 or later. An addition in the east side dates from about 1711 and further additions were made in 1858. The village of Cullen is noted for Cullen Skink, a traditional soup made from smoked haddock, milk, potato and onion.
