What is recorded here
Culzean Castle, Walled Garden stands in South Ayrshire, Scotland, recorded as a walled garden without a clear period. The exact point is known to the nearest metre, yet the wall hides more than it reveals. Perhaps tenders still move through unseen doors, growing food for castle kitchens that no longer appear on modern maps.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Culzean Castle, Walled Garden as Walled Garden (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.
Culzean Castle, including its walled garden, was built by the Kennedy family in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The castle and its extensive gardens are important as a prime example of Scottish neoclassical architecture and landscape design.
