What is recorded here

Comlongon, Castle Cottages stand in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, recorded only as cottages without a clear period. The exact location is known to the nearest metre, yet the buildings resist simple dating. They may have housed castle keepers, farm workers or travellers seeking shelter from the Galloway wind. Their silence preserves more than measurement because memory still moves through rooms no longer named.
