What is recorded here

Baikie Castle stood on the shores of the former Loch of Baikie in Angus, Scotland, surrounded by a moat, drawbridge and stone causeway. The Fenton family owned it from the 13th century until the 15th century, when it passed to the Lyon of Glamis family. Water closed the castle like a fist, forcing every visitor across one narrow line of stone. By the 19th century the loch had vanished and the castle disappeared with it, leaving no remains above ground.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Baikie Castle as Castle (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Baikie Castle was a medieval stronghold, likely built in the 13th or 14th century, and is associated with the historical region of Clackmannanshire in central Scotland. It is remembered for its strategic position and as an example of early Scottish castle architecture.
