What is recorded here
No castle wall stands at Tullochcarron, though Castletown still keeps the name beside the River Avon. A medieval hall may have commanded the west bank before Ballindalloch claimed the whole valley, and men may have watched the water from that lost height. Forty metres of soil and forgetting have done what siege engines never could: they erased the room where the laird lived.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Tullochcarron Castle as Castle (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Tullochcarron Castle was a medieval stronghold, likely built by a local clan in the Scottish Highlands, though specific builders and dates remain unrecorded. It is remembered as part of Scotland's rich network of small castles that reflect the region's historical patterns of landholding and defense.
