Menstrie, Midtown, Windsor Castle

Plaque (19th Century)

What is recorded here

Windsor Castle in Menstrie, Midtown, Clackmannanshire, carries a 19th-century plaque, though the castle itself may have vanished or never matched the grandeur of its name. The plaque survives where memory faded, marking a point on the earth rather than a building in the mind. Perhaps someone proud once lived there, or someone foolish repeated a foreign name until it became true. Stone and story both need witnessing to exist.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Menstrie, Midtown, Windsor Castle as Plaque (19th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
