What is recorded here

Craig Castle is a late 16th-century tower on a near vertical crag of sandstone in Highland, Scotland. The Urquharts are said to have erected it on the site of a residence of the Bishops of Ross. The tower stands four storeys high with vaulted floors, but coastal undercutting at the high water mark continues to erase its base.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Craig Castle as Quay (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Craig Castle is a medieval structure associated with the Craig family, a prominent Scottish clan, though specific builders or dates remain unclear. Its importance lies in its historical connection to clan heritage and the broader study of Scottish castle architecture.
