What is recorded here
Mounie Castle, Gates, Gate Piers and Flanking Walls stand in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, as a 17th Century gate, gate piers and flanking walls. The stones may have marked a boundary between private land and public road, forcing horses, carts and walking people to slow down and acknowledge the estate. That simple gate could have controlled who entered, when they entered and whether they left unchanged.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Mounie Castle, Gates, Gate Piers and Flanking Walls as Gate (17th Century), Gate Pier(s) (17th Century), Wall (17th Century). 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.
Mounie Castle, Gates, Gate Piers and Flanking Walls date from the 17th century and are associated with the historical estate of Mounie in Perth and Kinross, Scotland.
