Archaeology Notes

Site Management (7 September 2009)

Oval rubble building with gabled entrance porch to W, covering oval chamber. Depressed-arched door to porch. Open-eaved slate roofs, now in disrepair. Small loading platform to SW. One of the spectacular and complete group of structures making up the Taymouth Castle estate. (Historic Scotland)

The castle and its contents were sold in 1922 and it became a hotel. The site operated as a Polish hospital during the war and was later leased to a civil defence school.
