What is recorded here

South Lodge stands as the gate house of Castle Grant in the Highland, its pier and wall marking the boundary between private land and public road. The exact function is no longer recorded, but the shape suggests a place where entry was watched, measured and remembered. A person may have lived beside the gate, listened for carts and kept the estate's edge sharp against the wilderness.
