Skye, Armadale Castle, Stables — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Armadale Castle stables stand on Skye as a separate historic building beside the main castle. They are recorded only as stables without a clear period, leaving their age and exact purpose open to imagination. They may have held horses for castle work, guest travel or local service, but no fact above names the years or users. What is clear is that they belong to the Armadale Castle group and remain a marked part of Skye's historic landscape.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Skye, Armadale Castle, Stables as Stable(s) (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.

Armadale Castle, including its stables on the Isle of Skye, was built by the Macdonalds of Sleat in the 17th century and later expanded in the 19th century by Sir James Matheson, a prominent Scottish merchant and colonial figure. It is important as a historic seat of the Macdonald clan and as a symbol of the region's clan history and Victorian-era architectural influence.
