What is recorded here

Stobhall Castle, Chapel and Tower House stands in Perth and Kinross as a 16th Century chapel and tower house, marked by a sundial of unknown age. The chapel likely echoed with prayers while the tower watched the land, two functions built side by side instead of hidden inside one grand palace. A sundial still belongs to the place, measuring daylight without saying when it arrived. The castle may have served a local family, hosted travellers or simply marked territory, but its parts still point to a life where worship, defence and time kept separate jobs.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stobhall Castle, Chapel and Tower House as Chapel (16th Century), Sundial (period Unassigned), Tower House (16th Century).
