What is recorded here

Tillicoultry is a Scottish town at the foot of the Ochil Hills where a possible medieval castle once stood. Legend claims stones from that ruined fortress were carried to build Stirling Castle, yet no complete wall remains for a visitor to touch. The town grew around cloth making, mining and busy roads, burying the castle beneath ordinary life. What is left is a name, a hill and a story about stones taken elsewhere.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Tillicoultry as Castle (medieval)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Tillicoultry Castle, located in Clackmannanshire, Scotland, was built in the 14th century by the Drummonds, a powerful noble family. It is remembered as a strategic stronghold in the region and for its later use as a prison during the 17th century.
