OS 6" map, Morayshire, 2nd ed., (1906)

Asliesk Castle was an extensive and interesting example of a castle of the 4th period ie. betweeen 1542 and 1700. All that now remains is part of the west gable.

D MacGibbon and T Ross 1887-92.

The foundations can be traced for a number of yards. In the farm-square is the old well of the castle. It is of considerable depth. In a gable is a stone with coat of arms bearing date 1587. This is the only sculptured stone about the place.

Near Asliesk Castle on the south "there is a physic well called the Rees well ... very much used by such as are gravelish".

W Macfarlane 1906-8."
