Moncur Castle

Standing Stone (prehistoric)(possible)

What is recorded here

Moncur Castle appears only as a possible prehistoric standing stone near Perth and Kinross, stripped of every claim that would make it certain. That vacancy is not a failure, but an invitation: a stone may still stand while human memory has left it behind. To call it a castle is to give the unknown shape; to call it a stone is to admit the limit of knowing. Both answers can be true at once.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Moncur Castle as Standing Stone (prehistoric)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. 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.
