What is recorded here
Leith, Firth of Forth, and Aberdour Castle belong to the same crowded memory, but identity requires proof in the claim being made. An attractive picture or a familiar-sounding name does not remove that requirement.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Aberdour Castle: Leith, Firth of Forth as Craft (19th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Aberdour Castle, located near the Firth of Forth in Scotland, was built in the 13th century by the Douglas family, a powerful and influential noble house in Scottish history. It is remembered for its strategic importance in the region and its association with key events during the Wars of Scottish Independence.
