Harviestoun Castle, Stables

Stable(s) (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Harviestoun Castle stables stand in Clackmannanshire, their exact position known to the nearest metre though no date or purpose has emerged for the stones. They belong to the castle rather than a separate house, suggesting horses once moved through that estate with the same certainty as people. The absence of a date does not diminish the function: a stable exists to hold living creatures, feed them, and keep them safe from storm or theft. Whatever else has vanished from the site, that practical purpose remains written in its shape.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Harviestoun Castle, Stables as Stable(s) (period Unassigned). 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.
