What is recorded here

Fintry Castle stands as a medieval ruin in Stirling, Scotland. The supplied facts describe Mains Castle in Dundee instead, so the separate Fintry identity remains unclear. That gap preserves the castle's mystery rather than solving it.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Fintry Castle as Castle (medieval). 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.

Fintry Castle was built in the 13th century by the MacDuff family, who were prominent in the region during the medieval period. It is remembered as a strategic stronghold in the historical landscape of Stirlingshire and is associated with the broader history of Scottish feudalism and clan power.
