What is recorded here

Campcastle is a building in South Ayrshire, recorded without a period but marked on the official map to the nearest metre. The name suggests a military or defensive origin, yet no date, owner or event is attached to it in the public record. It may have been a watchtower, a boundary marker or a private stronghold, but the facts stop at the shape and the place.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Campcastle as Building (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
