About Guthrie Castle

A 19th-century Baronial house incorporating earlier medieval structures.

History of Guthrie Castle

Built in 1848, Guthrie Castle is a fine example of 19th-century Scottish Baronial revival architecture that incorporates elements from an earlier medieval castle on the same site. The castle was designed during the Victorian period's romantic revival of Scottish architectural traditions, combining modern comfort with medieval grandeur. The Guthrie family, who gave their name to the nearby village, built this impressive residence to reflect their ancient lineage and continued importance in Angus society. The castle remains a private residence, demonstrating the successful adaptation of historic Scottish architectural styles for Victorian family life.
