What is recorded here

Taymouth Castle, Ramparts stand in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, though no date or builder is recorded. The wall may have marked a boundary, kept out rain, or simply shown that someone wanted the land shaped to human wishes. Whatever it did, it still does it: a line of stone insisting on itself while the castle and valley carry on around it.

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

Taymouth Castle, located in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, was originally built in the late 15th century by the Campbell family, later held by the Earls of Breadalbane.
