north east scotland castles

[Giggsie]

I have tried really hard finding these castles but time is running out can anyone help? 1. male swallows right to lead ballad. 2. backward breed of horse gets right. 3. stir naked plus male with changed direction. 4 bundle less east +line add sounds like fowl. 5. mixed race add fruit less 16th.

I think you've got it,futritcat.Saw Gordon Castle when I googled castles in Moray but I couldn't see how it fitted.Apparently there's a Gordon Ballad (googled it).So lead=go,r=right and don=male. Or is Gordon the male? Anyway Gordon fits. Must admit it's a really weird clue-that's not sour grapes because I didn't suss it out, lol Never heard of that castle and I come from Gordon country!! Good luck with the quiz-you deserve it.
