What is recorded here

Brough is a narrow Caithness promontory where a steep sea scarp, a cut neck ditch and two missing building ranges still outline a castle no document has named. Its keep has vanished into a debris mound, leaving only the shape of a place that watched the water and waited for people clever enough to build there.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Brough as Castle (medieval), Settlement (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Brough Castle in Scotland is a medieval structure, though specific builders or holders are not clearly recorded. It is remembered for its archaeological and historical significance as part of the region's medieval landscape.
