What is recorded here
Twenty-one Castle Street stands as a Post Medieval tenement in Aberdeen, its stone rooms still holding the heat of bodies that walked them. It may have housed merchants, midwives or smugglers, though no name survives to confirm which. The building does not need a famous victim or a royal visitor; it needs only to remember the ordinary lives it held.
