What is recorded here
Moncur Castle preserves medieval and 18th-century garden features and linear boundaries in Perth and Kinross. Its exact position is known within ten metres, yet the distinction between preserved earth and forgotten estate remains unclear. The land may have served lords, workers or neighbours in ways no longer recorded. What is certain is that gardens and boundaries survived long enough to be measured, named and kept separate from ordinary ground.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Moncur Castle as Garden(s) (medieval) - (18th Century), Linear Feature(s) (medieval) - (18th Century). 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.
Moncur Castle was built in the 18th century, though specific builders or holders are not recorded. It is remembered for its medieval garden and linear features, reflecting historic landscape design in Scotland.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
