Castlehill, Baldernock

Motte (medieval)(possible)

What is recorded here

Castlehill, Baldernock is a possible medieval motte hidden in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland, where a mound of earth may still mark a lost fortress. The exact boundary remains uncertain because the known point sits within a hundred metres of the true centre. That uncertainty does not weaken the place; it preserves the mystery of a hill that may have watched the land before written memory.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlehill, Baldernock as Motte (medieval)(possible). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
