Powrie Castle

Fortified House (17th Century)

Overview

Powrie Castle is recorded as Fortified House (17th Century) in Scotland Dundee City. The saved record does not give a safe building date. The saved evidence fixes the place and classification, while builders, attacks and later use remain open unless a named source establishes them.

Who built and held it

The saved record identifies Powrie Castle as Fortified House (17th Century). It does not safely name a builder, owner or garrison, so no famous namesake has been borrowed.

Attack, change and use

No particular siege, capture, rebuilding or later use is established by the saved public wording. Those events remain unknown unless the linked record or later evidence identifies them.

What survives

The place is saved as inside public local-area border. Its classification is Fortified House (17th Century); this first account does not claim that a complete building survives where the record may represent ruins, earthworks or a broad mapped area.

Why it mattered

The record preserves Powrie Castle as a local defensive or high-status place and gives readers an exact starting point for its history. Its wider importance and local stories are not invented where the present evidence is silent.
