Castlelaw

Plantation Bank (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Castlelaw is a plantation bank in the Scottish Borders, an unassigned marker in a landscape where human hands still shape the land. The name suggests cultivation rather than conflict, yet it sits beside military ranges and ancient forts, reminding us that ownership and use have always shifted there. A bank is small, but it records the moment people decided the earth should hold a line.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlelaw as Plantation Bank (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.
