What is recorded here

Redbraes Castle stands as a medieval ruin in the Scottish Borders, its red stones still catching the low light. The name itself suggests a place where fire and blood were common, perhaps born from war or pride. You can still walk past the broken walls and imagine the hands that built them, the fears they held back, and the days when the castle was the centre of a small world.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Redbraes Castle as Castle (medieval). 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.

Redbraes Castle was built in the late 15th century by the Keith family, a powerful noble lineage in northeast Scotland. It is remembered as a significant stronghold associated with the Keiths and their historical influence in the region.
