What is recorded here
Castlehill Pavement Works, Quarry Offices stands in Highland, Scotland, a practical birthplace for road stone and human ambition. Men may have broken rock there until muscle and margin ran out, feeding streets that forgot the quarry which made them strong. The offices suggest more than muscle; someone measured, recorded and decided how much of the hill the town could take.
