What is recorded here
Mounie Castle Estate, Detached Block stands as an 18th-century house in Aberdeenshire, separated from the main castle yet still belonging to its wider estate. It may have served as a kitchen, a guard post or a private retreat for someone who needed distance but not exile. The detachment suggests purpose, perhaps even pride, for a building set apart often exists to give the main house room to breathe.
