What is recorded here

Burleigh Castle, 4 Farmsteading stands in Perth and Kinross as a nineteenth-century farmstead, its exact position marked to the nearest metre. The name suggests a castle, but the structure served ordinary agricultural life, perhaps housing workers or storing grain rather than defending a kingdom. That gap between grand title and humble function creates a small mystery: a place called castle may have been nothing more than a sturdy home for people who worked the land.
