What is recorded here

Kaythe Castle stands in the Scottish Borders as a house whose age and purpose have slipped from memory. It may have been a home, a hideout, or a small seat of local power, but no date or name has survived to confirm which. The land around it may still hold the shape of its gardens, lanes, or boundaries, even if the building has vanished. Forgetting does not erase the place; it returns the site to the wider life of the region.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Kaythe Castle as House (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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
