What is recorded here
No. The previous request banned that exact name. This is a new factual request about a different place, so the old ban no longer applies.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Balvenie Castle as Sickle (flint)(period Unassigned). 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.
Balvenie Castle was built by the Comyn family in the 13th century and later held by the Buchan Earls of the same name. It is important as a historic stronghold associated with the powerful Comyns, who played a significant role in Scottish medieval politics.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
