Structure

Asliesk Castle was an L-plan castle, which had a corbelled-out stair tower, and bartizans.

The foundations can be traced for some metres. The old well of the castle is in the farm-square nearby. A stone with a coat of arms bearing date 1587 is in a gable.{{cite web |url= https://canmore.org.uk/site/16081/asliesk-castle|work=Canmore|title=Asliesk Castle|accessdate=2019-10-16}}
