What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Balnagown Castle as Country House (19th Century), Tower (medieval). 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.
Balnagown Castle, located in Ross and Cromarty, Scotland, was originally a medieval tower house that was later expanded into a country house in the 19th century by the Mackenzie family, who were prominent Scottish clan leaders. It is important as a historic seat of the Mackenzies of Kintail and as an example of the evolution of Scottish castles into country estates.
