What is recorded here

Struthers Castle stands in Fife as a sixteenth-century country house, its stones still holding the shape of rooms where people lived, argued and loved. It is not a fortress built to break armies but a domestic place made for daily life, which makes its survival feel like a quiet act of stubbornness. The castle may have witnessed ordinary joys and private sorrows, yet those stories have faded into the soil around it. What remains is a building old enough to have outlived every person who first walked its floors.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Struthers Castle as Country House (16th 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.
Struthers Castle was a 16th-century country house associated with the Struther family of East Lothian. It is remembered for its historical significance as a local seat of the landed gentry in the region.
