Castlelaw, the Mount

Stone (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Castlelaw, the Mount stands in the Scottish Borders as an unassigned stone marker, perhaps a boundary or a warning forgotten by time. Its exact purpose has slipped from human memory, leaving only the mountain and the name behind. The law may have belonged to a kingdom that no longer exists, yet the mount still casts its shadow across the valley.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlelaw, the Mount as Stone (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.
