What is recorded here

North Cottage stands beside Blackhall Castle in Aberdeenshire, a small estate building still unclassified in time but fixed in space. It may have served tenants, kept tools, or hidden lovers from the main house, though no fact records that life. The castle tower looms nearby while the cottage waits quiet, proving that grandeur needs small rooms where real people ate, slept and whispered.
