What is recorded here
Castleton is a living village in Angus, Scotland, where the Castleton Hotel stands beside the buried medieval fortification that gave the place its name. The earthwork still marks the site with a deep ditch and internal rampart, although no castle buildings remain visible. The surrounding area belongs to Eassie, where the Eassie Stone and old road links give the village a longer shadow than its small size suggests.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castleton as Cropmark(s) (period Unknown). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. 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.
