What is recorded here

Crathes Castle, Ice Pond is a 19th-century ice pond in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is the kind of place where cold water and stone still belong together, even when the castle rooms have changed hands or forgotten their own rules. A person could stand at its edge and remember that houses need more than walls; they need patience, hunger and the discipline of winter.
