Murthly Castle, Fountain

Drinking Fountain (19th Century)

What is recorded here

Murthly Castle keeps a drinking fountain from the 19th century, a small stone or metal gift hidden beside the grounds. People may have drunk from it after walking, hunting or visiting the castle, their cups clinking while horses stamped nearby. The fountain still marks that moment when human thirst met castle property, even if the main buildings faded or changed hands.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Murthly Castle, Fountain as Drinking Fountain (19th 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.

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