Struthers Castle is a medieval fortified residence located in Fife, Scotland, with origins traceable to the late medieval period. The castle comprised a substantial stone-built structure typical of Scottish baronial architecture, accompanied by ancillary structures including a doocot and designed parkland that reflected the status and resources of its proprietors. The site demonstrates the defensive and residential requirements of a significant Fife landholding during its period of occupation and modification. The castle, park, and doocot together constitute an important example of the integrated estate infrastructure characteristic of late medieval and early modern Scottish landed society.
