What is recorded here
Culzean Castle Policies, Gas Work Bay is a sea defence in South Ayrshire, Scotland, where the land still shows the hands that built it. The bay may have been a small working port for gas, tools or heavy carts, while the policies around it belonged to a grander house. Together they suggest a place where private pride and public danger met at the tide line.
