Brodick Castle, Greenhyde Cottage

Cottage (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Greenhyde Cottage stands beside Brodick Castle in North Ayrshire, a small shelter caught in the shadow of a much larger stone presence. It may have housed keepers, workers or tenants who tended the castle grounds, though no date or name survives to confirm that role. The cottage still belongs to the wider Brodick story, giving the castle a domestic edge and reminding visitors that grand stones need ordinary hands around them.
