What is recorded here
Abbotsbury Castle Trig Point is a castle, fort or tower in Dorset, England. Perhaps the castle vanished long before the point appeared, leaving behind a phantom marker for instruments that measure distance rather than memory. Maybe the tower still stands beneath seaweed or farm soil, waiting for a surveyor honest enough to ask the ground what it keeps.
