What is recorded here

Castlehill Tower rose on a rocky knoll above the Manor Water to guard a ford, its thick basement walls and hidden stair still marking the footprint of a home that changed hands from the Lowis of Manor to the Earl of March. A polished Neolithic axehead has also been lost there, suggesting people worked the same steep ground long before stone towers rose. The building may have had three storeys and a garret, but only parts of the ground and first floors remain, leaving the upper rooms imagined through gaps in the wall.
