Benholm’s Lodgings, Lodging, Lodge or Tower, also known as Keith’s Lodgings or the Wallace Tower or Neuk, is a reconstructed early 17th century Z-plan tower house latterly situated in Seaton Park, Aberdeen, Scotland. It is a category B listed building.

Originally sited in a commanding position just outside of the burgh's western Netherkirkgate Port, Benholm's Lodgings was the fortified Aberdeen residence of Sir Robert Keith of Benholm, the turbulent brother of George Keith, 5th Earl Marischal. The building has seen much use as private and commercial quarters; of these, it was perhaps best known as a public house called the Wallace Tower.

In 1964, in a move widely decried by Aberdonians and antiquarians both, the building and its environs were demolished to make way for commercial development. A replica incorporating some of its original stonework was constructed in the city’s Seaton Park thereafter. It has since been used as council housing, but currently lies vacant.
