No credible cache exists for that name. The claim is not in the evidence. I will not decorate an empty address into history.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Balmanno Castle as Sundial (period Unassigned). 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.
Balmanno Castle is a 16th-century tower house located in Fife, Scotland, and was originally built by the Drummond family, a prominent Scottish noble lineage. It is remembered for its historical association with the Drummonds and for its well-preserved sundial, which reflects the family's interest in astronomy and timekeeping.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
