What is recorded here
Castledykes, Bothwellhaugh and Balmuildy mark Roman quarry pits and a road in South Lanarkshire, where men may have broken stone for bridges, walls or military works. The land keeps that labour beneath grass and memory. To walk near the sites is to share a road built by hands that never asked permission from time.
