What is recorded here
Fingask Castle, Swimming Pool, Tennis Court and Thatched Hut appear together in Perth and Kinross as a 20th Century cluster of private recreation. The castle looms while the pool and court invite ordinary joy, but the thatched hut suggests a smaller, hidden room for thought or mischief. Together they sketch a life where grand history and everyday play shared one garden.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Fingask Castle, Swimming Pool, Tennis Court and Thatched Hut as Hut (20th Century), Swimming Pool (20th Century), Tennis Court (20th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Fingask Castle was built in the 17th century by the Keith family, a prominent Scottish noble family, and later expanded in the 19th century. It is remembered for its well-preserved architecture and historical association with the Earls Marischal.
