Scone Palace, South Lodge

Lodge (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

South Lodge stands beside Scone Palace in Perth and Kinross, a separate structure whose purpose and age remain unrecorded. It may have guarded the main entrance, housed keepers, or simply marked the boundary of a larger estate. Without a date or description, the lodge resists easy judgment. It still belongs to the palace estate, visible on the national record but closed to casual entry.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Scone Palace, South Lodge as Lodge (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Scone Palace, South Lodge is associated with the historic Scone Palace, traditionally the site of the coronation of Scottish kings and once held by the powerful Comyn family. It is important as part of the wider Scone estate, which has significant historical and archaeological value in Scottish royal and medieval history.
