What is recorded here

Fingask Castle, Gardener's Cottages and Potting Sheds stands in Perth and Kinross as a cluster of 19th-century cottages and potting sheds that served the castle's gardens. The main castle has vanished, leaving only these humble outbuildings to mark where grandeur once stood. They remain a quiet reminder that gardens require more than stone walls; they need hands, soil and shelter for the tools that shape life.

Fingask Castle, Gardener's Cottages and Potting Sheds were built in the 19th century as part of the estate associated with the historic Fingask Castle, which was originally constructed in the 16th century by the Drummond family, later Earls of Perth. The structures are important as they reflect the domestic and agricultural support infrastructure typical of Scottish country estates during the 18th to 20th centuries.
