What is recorded here
Garth Castle is a lost farmstead and field system in Perth and Kinross, preserved only as a point on the national record rather than a visible building. The name suggests a fortified home or a powerful local identity, yet no wall, chamber or dated event survives to confirm that claim. The land may still hold faint boundary lines or buried rubble, waiting for someone to walk the fields and imagine the hands that shaped them.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records 'garth Castle' as Farmstead (period Unassigned), Field System (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.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
