The Great Seal of Scotland,
Scotland's medieval record of property transactions, mentions Pittarthie
numerous times, although the majority of these are asides in conjunction
with transactions relating to other properties, there are three charters
directly pertaining to Pittarthie. Whilst these are of more historical
value than as a resource to potential restorers, they do support the theory
that there was a fortified structure at Pittarthie prior to the existing
structure.
NB. The entries below are
direct translations of the latin charters, therefore Pittarthie appears
as Petterthy, Petterthie, Pitairthie etc.
