What is recorded here

Fingask Castle is a 17th-century sundial in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Its shadow still draws a line across the ground when sunlight reaches it, marking hours without glass, wire or human instruction. The castle around it has withdrawn into age, but the dial remains a plain instrument of daylight, measuring time in the oldest way the place still understands.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Fingask Castle as Sundial (17th 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.
