Culdees Castle, South Lodge

Lodge (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Culdees Castle, South Lodge stands in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, a lodge whose age and exact purpose have slipped from human memory. It may have served as a hunting seat, a keeper's house, or a boundary marker for a forgotten estate. The stones remain silent about their own history, offering no date, no name, no explanation. What is certain is that the lodge still exists, mapped and recorded, waiting for someone to ask the right question.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Culdees Castle, South Lodge as Lodge (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.
