What is recorded here
Castle Ban Motte stands in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, a buried anchor of human ambition beneath the grass. The land may have shaken during storms or birthed children who ran barefoot across its slope before memory faded. People forgot the name but the earth kept the shape of hands that built it.
Castle Ban Motte is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Dumfries and Galloway. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
