What is recorded here

Caisteal Chiosmuil, the castle of Castlebay is a castle, fort or tower in Na h-Eileanan Siar, Scotland. Perhaps its stones still hold the heat of hands that built them against the sea. Maybe the bay itself shaped the castle more often than the castle shaped the bay. Imagine standing inside its shadow at low tide, hearing water pull at foundations no longer visible.
