What is recorded here
No visible wall or pier remains at that exact point, though the name still belongs to Castledykes Cottage on Glencaple Road. The missing stones may have been removed, buried or never built where imagination expects them. Dumfries keeps such absent markers by refusing to erase the shape they once gave the garden.
