What is recorded here

Bow Cottage and its kiln barn still stand beside Ballindalloch Castle, carrying marks from the 18th and 19th centuries. The kiln suggests heat, noise and repeated labour, while the cottage suggests rest, meals and ordinary life lived close to castle work. Together they complete the castle story because greatness usually depends on smaller buildings and unseen hands.
