What is recorded here

Castle of Fiddes stands in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, its name preserved though its class and period remain unassigned. The exact point is known to the nearest metre, yet the absence of a date or description leaves the castle hovering outside ordinary history. It may have been a home, a fortress or a forgotten farm, but the gap in knowledge makes the place more striking, not less.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Stonehaven, Home Farm Barras, Castle of Fiddes as No Class (event) (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.
