Marc Ellington, American folk singer who became the laird of a Scottish estate – obituary Telegraph Obituaries © Estate Of Keith Morris/Redferns Marc Ellington in his folk days - Estate Of Keith Morris/Redferns
Marc Ellington, who has died aged 75, was an American folk rock musician and Vietnam draft evader who became one of Scotland’s leading building conservationists through his restoration of the derelict Towie Barclay Castle.
He was a man of warmth and generosity, and his journey from hippiedom to the heart of the Scottish Establishment as Deputy Lieutenant of Aberdeenshire was completely unforced.
