What is recorded here

Myres Castle, Walled Garden, Sundial and Statue stand in Fife, Scotland, marked on the official map to the nearest metre. The walled garden and sundial suggest a place where people measured daylight and grew food beside a castle, though no date or owner is written in the facts. A statue remains unnamed and unassigned, waiting for a hand to point at it and ask who it honours.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Myres Castle, Walled Garden, Sundial and Statue as Statue (period Unassigned), Sundial (period Unassigned). 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.
Myres Castle was likely built in the 17th or 18th century by a local landed family, though specific builders or owners are not recorded. It is remembered for its well-preserved walled garden, sundial, and statue, which reflect the domestic and ornamental architecture of Scotland's landed gentry.
