A speculative digital reconstruction of the Bass of Inverurie – a late twelfth-century timber and earthwork castle held by the Earls of Garioch (pronounced 'Geary' in the local tongue) – members of the extended royal family of Scotland and the ancestors of King Robert the Bruce. The first constables of Inverurie Castle, were the de Lesselyns or the Leslies. The Lesselyn surname is derived from the lands which formed their original barony in Aberdeenshire granted to them by Malcolm III and his immediate successors.
