This small tower was probably erected by Alexander Brodie of Lethan. Brodie supported the Covenanters, which led to his lands being attacked on several occasions, once by the Marquis of Montrose in person. The Battle Auldearn took place near here on 9 May 1645, when Montrose defeated a force of Covenanters.An unusual detached, fortified bell tower, built in 1655 to serve the parish church of Ardclach. The tower stands on a hillock at the north-west corner of Ardclach, while the church it was built to serve is down in a loop of the River Findhorn several hundred yards away.
