What is recorded here
Castle stands in Orkney Islands, Scotland, recorded as a possible building with no known period. The name suggests a defensive structure, yet no wall, room or function has survived to confirm the claim. Whatever it was, it has given up its shape and waits beneath grass or soil, remembered only through a point on a map.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle as Building (period Unassigned)(possible). 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.
