What is recorded here

Brodie Castle, Former Walkmill stands in Moray, Scotland, recorded as a saw mill though no date or owner is written beside it. The name suggests a castle, but the function was brutal and plain: cutting wood. Perhaps a family lived above the machinery, listening for the saw's cry instead of a servant's call. The boundary between home and workshop may have vanished long before the castle idea arrived.
