What is recorded here

Mareot 13500 predates written human memory. The chamber is a natural cave, not a crafted room, yet someone lived there long before kings or roads. Stone tools, bone fragments and ash still mark the floor, proving the darkness never stayed empty.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Ballindalloch Castle, Stables and Cartsheds, South Range as Cart Shed (18th Century), Stable(s) (18th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Ballindalloch Castle, including its 18th-century stables and cartsheds, was built by the Gordon family, who have held the estate for centuries. The structures are important as they reflect the agricultural and estate management practices of Scottish landed gentry during the 18th century.
