What is recorded here

Castle Hill Centre stood on Castlehill in Cupar as an 18th Century school, placing young minds beneath a hill that has watched Fife for centuries. Children may have climbed those slopes before entering classrooms, carrying breath and dirt into lessons about the world above them. The building has vanished or changed beyond recognition, but the hill remains sharp and present, remembering every lesson taught beside it.
