Castle Lachlan Estate

Bank (earthwork) (19th Century)

What is recorded here

Castle Lachlan Estate is a 19th-century earthwork in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, still marked on the official map with a point accurate to ten metres. A bank of soil, not stone, suggests people shaped the land for visibility, boundary or pride rather than wartime defence. The estate name implies ownership and continuity, yet no tower or gate remains in the facts provided. What is left is a line of raised earth waiting for someone to walk it and remember why it was built.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Lachlan Estate as Bank (earthwork) (19th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. 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.
