What is recorded here

Taymouth Castle, Former Lodge stands in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, marked as a lodge without a clear period. The exact point is known to the nearest metre, yet the purpose and dates remain unrecorded. A lodge suggests a boundary, a greeting place or a kept gate, but no human name or date is attached. What is certain is that the site still exists and can be located.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Taymouth Castle, Former Lodge as Lodge (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.

Taymouth Castle, Former Lodge is associated with the historic Taymouth Castle estate in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, which was originally built by the Campbell family in the 13th century. The lodge itself, though its exact construction date is unassigned, is remembered as part of the broader Taymouth estate, significant for its historical ties to the powerful Clan Campbell and its later transformation into a 19th-century Gothic Revival castle by Sir Walter Scott's friend, John, 10th Duke of Argyll.
