What is recorded here

Creich Castle, Dovecot stood in Fife during the 18th Century, a purpose-built chamber where birds flew rather than people. Its walls held life in motion, crowded with wings and breath instead of furniture or fire. The castle kept people; the dovecot kept flies. Both needed structure, guardrails and care.
