Development History
19 February 2014: External inspection finds the complex a roofless ruin. The 2005 consented redevelopment plan for the Taymouth Castle estate (03/02250/PPLB) proposed the conversion of the former kennels to form a health spa. An approved application to vary the original consents (11/00533/FLM) states the applicants now consider the kennels to be too far removed from the Castle for a spa and that a revised proposal for the site is to be progressed in the future.
