What is recorded here
Comrie Castle stands ruined beside the River Lyon in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It was the ancient seat of the Menzies family until fire struck in 1487, forcing them to move to Weem Castle. They returned in the sixteenth century to rebuild a L-plan tower house, but the castle fell empty after 1748 and slowly surrendered its rooms to rain and time.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Comrie Castle as Boundary Stone (19th 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.
Comrie Castle is not a known castle but rather a 19th-century boundary stone in Scotland. It holds local historical significance as a survey marker, though it has no recorded noble or military associations.
