Kinnaird Castle

Cultivation Remains (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Kinnaird Castle has sheltered the Carnegie family for more than 600 years, enduring burnings, confiscations and a devastating 1921 fire. Kings, pretenders and marquises have crossed its thresholds, each leaving behind claims, scars or memories that the stones still hold. What remains is not a polished monument but a lived place, shaped by loyalty, loss and repeated rebuilding.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Kinnaird Castle as Cultivation Remains (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.
Kinnaird Castle, located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, was built in the 19th century by Sir Henry Raeburn, a prominent Scottish painter, as a summer residence. It is remembered for its picturesque design and its association with Raeburn, one of Scotland's most celebrated artists.
