Without county town status, Kincardine quickly dwindled, and the castle fell into ruin. By the 1830s, it was described as a "mere hamlet" and it was noted that "only the foundations of the [castle] walls can be traced", [6] and by 1870 there were no surviving houses. [3] The castle foundations survive today, forming a Scheduled Monument. [7]
In 1296, King John Balliol wrote a letter of surrender from Kincardine Castle to Edward I of England after a short war that marked the beginning of the Wars of Scottish Independence.
