What is recorded here

Castlehill Farm still holds its shape in Dumfries and Galloway, a tangle of byre, piggery and labourer cottages where human hands and animal heat may have filled every room. It is the kind of place that demands life, not admiration, because its rooms were made for work, smell and movement.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlehill Farm as Byre (period Unassigned), Farm Labourers Cottage(s) (period Unassigned), Farmstead (period Unassigned), Piggery (period Unassigned). 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.
