Brodie Castle, Walled Garden

Glasshouse (19th Century) - (20th Century)

What is recorded here

Brodie Castle, Walled Garden stands in Moray as a nineteenth-century glasshouse, still marked on official maps though no longer open to casual visitors. Inside its pale frame, heat and humidity may have curled around rare plants while the castle watched from above. The boundary between cultivated life and wild Scotland became thin in that small warm room, where tenderness and pride both had a reason to exist.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Brodie Castle, Walled Garden as Glasshouse (19th Century) - (20th 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.
Brodie Castle, Walled Garden was built in the 19th century and later used into the 20th century, serving as a glasshouse associated with the Brodie family, who have held the Brodie Castle estate since the 13th century. It is important as part of the historic estate of one of Scotland's oldest noble families.
