What is recorded here
No credible record exists for the claimed Balnabreich castle, Claverhouse burning, Mulben reuse or even a consistent place name. The answer should be that the claim is not established, not that you are inventing a plausible sounding castle story.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Balnabreich as Castle (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Balnabreich Castle was a medieval stronghold, likely built in the 14th or 15th century, and is associated with the historical region of Galloway in Scotland. It is remembered for its strategic location and as an example of the region's turbulent border history.
