Niddry Castle

Rig and Furrow (medieval) - (post Medieval)

What is recorded here

No visible ruin remains at that coordinate, though the lost castle may have stood nearby. The area is an active farm, not a dormant archaeological site. The distinction matters because the ground still works, and the missing tower does not pause the life around it.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Niddry Castle as Rig and Furrow (medieval) - (post Medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Niddry Castle, located in Lothian, Scotland, was built in the 14th century by the de Niddry family, a prominent local landholding family. It is remembered for its historical association with the region's medieval aristocracy and its remains provide insight into late medieval Scottish domestic architecture.
