What is recorded here
Braco Castle is a bronze spearhead recorded in Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment, not a castle at all. It belongs to an unassigned period and may have belonged to nobody but the earth. The real castle is memory, building rooms around a lost weapon and calling the fantasy home.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Braco Castle as Spearhead (bronze)(period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Braco Castle is a historic site in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, with origins likely dating to the 13th or 14th century. It is remembered for its association with the Drummond family, prominent in Scottish history, and for its strategic position in the region.
