What is recorded here

Castle of Auchry is a red sandstone farmstead in Aberdeenshire that replaced an earlier castellated residence, preserving carved stones from Patrick Conn and a Catholic IHS monogram. The buildings still surround a mill wheel pit and threshing fixings, proving the site continued to process grain long after the castle fell into ruin.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle of Auchry as Farmhouse (period Unassigned), Farmstead (period Unassigned). 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.

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