What is recorded here
Craig Castle, Kennels stands in Aberdeenshire as a set of kennels, not a grand castle despite its name. The distinction matters because dogs and people both need somewhere dry when storms move through northern Scotland. Whether it served hunters, farmers or travellers remains unrecorded, but the claim is small enough to believe.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Craig Castle, Kennels as Kennels (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.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
