What is recorded here
Castle Park in Midlothian, Scotland, holds medieval rig and furrow marks beside a possible unassigned enclosure and settlement. The land may have fed people, excluded them, or both under changing rules. Its boundaries remain unrecorded, but the soil still distinguishes between what was planted and what was withheld.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Park as Enclosure (period Unassigned), Rig and Furrow (medieval) - (post Medieval), Settlement (period Unassigned)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. 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.
