What is recorded here
Castle O'er, Sundial marks Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, but no date or visible function has been recorded. A shadow may still fall across that point at noon, measuring time for nobody in particular. The absence of a date does not erase the place; it withholds judgment about when the stones first watched the sun.
