ABOYNE CASTLE (1). Scottish, Slow Air (2/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning. AAB. Composed by Alexander Walker. Aboyne Castle is the seat of the present-day Gordon clan (the home of the Marquis of Huntly), but has been a stronghold of the clan since the 13th century. Originally a motte and bailey castle, over time a stone keep was added, then a towerhouse in the 17th century, and finally was converted to a mansion in the 19th.
