What is recorded here
Castle Mains, Auchterarder holds a well whose age and purpose remain unrecorded. Water may have filled that hole since before the castle itself, drinking rain from the Perth and Kinross hills and giving life to whoever dug it. The mains of a castle are its lifeline, and a hidden well is the heart beating beneath the stones.
