What is recorded here

Stirling Castle and Governor's House stand together in Stirling, Scotland, recorded as a medieval castle and an unassigned house. The castle part is clear in age and kind, while the house resists easy dating. That gap suggests layers of life, occupation and change rather than a single completed story.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stirling Castle, Governor's House as Castle (medieval), House (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.

Stirling Castle, Governor's House was built in the 16th century, likely during the reign of James V of Scotland, and served as a residence for military or administrative officials. It is important due to its association with Stirling Castle, a key royal and military site in Scottish history.
